Students in Rotterdam spend 52 per cent of their income on rent each month. This was evident from a survey conducted by Yournalism<\/em> and Erasmus Magazine<\/em> among almost one thousand students, including 124 from Rotterdam.<\/p>\n

In Enschede students have to cough up a slightly smaller part of their income to be able to pay for their accommodation: 46 per cent. Those in Nijmegen indicate that they spend slightly more on rent: 55 per cent of their income. The percentage of income spent on rent by students in Rotterdam is above the national average of 50 per cent.<\/p>\n
