I think your example is significantly higher than average. I think £800-1000 per bedroom is standard for relatively nice places in zones 1-3 for 2+ bed places.

I think your example is significantly higher than average. I think £800-1000 per bedroom is standard for relatively nice places in zones 1-3 for 2+ bed places. For single beds it’s a bit higher, but not 2k+ unless you’re in a very fancy place.
- dijit 9y agoYes, I was referring to Zone 1-2 to be fair, and I understand that being more central is obviously more expensive, but as you move out to the more affordable areas you get locked into public transport. The less options there are for public transport the lower quality of life in general..
- wdb 9y agoI am paying £3.500/month for a four bedroom flat in Zone 1 near Kensington Palace. It's a choice if you want to pay a lot for rent or less of rent and a lot for the public transport. But I am going to buy something
- a008t 9y agoWhat is your occupation? Curious as to how you are managing to afford that rent while saving for a deposit.
- danpalmer 9y agoI still think you were paying on the significantly higher end for what you were getting, unless you were living in The City, or had a pool in your building or something like that. I expect that I probably pay about average. Most of my colleagues seem to be paying a little more than me. Some of my friends in lower paying jobs are paying much less than me.
