Living in shared student accommodation has lots of advantages. 

The concept of shared accommodation was first introduced in the 1980s in the United States, and has since become a social phenomenon, thanks in particular to series like New Girl. Every year, it allows thousands of students and young professionals to pay less rent and meet great people. 

While the main advantage of shared student accommodation is its cost-effectiveness, giving tenants the opportunity to access more spacious housing at a reasonable rate, most students and young professionals opt for this type of accommodation to live as part of a community. Shared accommodation allows you to socialise, share household chores and face everyday problems with your flatmates so you never feel lonely, even when you have just moved to a new city or country.
