BRUNEL.

Uxbridge itself is the most popular area for Brunel students, with properties on and around the campus boundary offering the shortest commute. Hillingdon, Hayes, and Southall are also popular for students who want more affordable rents while remaining within easy reach of campus by bus or tube. The Piccadilly and Metropolitan lines make the whole of west London accessible.

Brunel is one of the more affordable London universities for student accommodation. Shared houses in Uxbridge typically range from £550 to £750 per person per month, which is significantly cheaper than central London.
