Weekly rent will depend on whether you want to share a flat or live alone. Flatshares are considerably cheaper.

e.g. A one bedroom flat in Camden can cost between £200-£500 per week, depending on the size. (Studios – one room – are usually cheaper at around £180, but can be very small). However, a flatshare (one bedroom, shared bathroom and kitchen) can be as cheap as £80 a week, depending on the size of the room etc.

It will also depend on the location. The further out you go from central London, the cheaper it gets – but you will have to think about travel costs as well.

Remember to ask whether bills are included in the rent. If they’re not, you will need to pay council tax, water, gas, electricity, etc.

If you are studying here, find out if your university or college has any accomodation – e.g. halls of residence (dorms). They usually have an accomodation office who can help you find affordable flats and flatshares in London.

Good luck
