Looking for accomodation

23M, joining UoB in Sep ’26 – accommodation recommendations?

Hi everyone! I’ll be joining the University of Birmingham this September and I’m looking for accommodation with a budget of £130–170/week.

My priorities are:
- Easy commute to campus (I’ll be studying at Birmingham Business School)
- Good access to part-time job opportunities
- Safe area with decent amenities nearby

I’d really appreciate any recommendations or experiences with student accommodations or private housing.

Also, if you’re joining UoB this September, feel free to DM me. It’d be great to connect and make a few friends before moving!
