Budget-friendly neighbourhoods for Nepali students in Beijing

Summary

Several Beijing neighborhoods offer budget-friendly housing options for Nepali students, each with distinct advantages such as proximity to universities, affordability, and transport connectivity, along with some trade-offs in commute time and amenities.

Key Points
  • Wudaokou is a popular student area close to major universities but can be noisy and crowded during academic terms.
  • Huilongguan offers more affordable rents and is connected to major university zones but has longer commute times and limited international student social options.
  • Daxing district provides low rents and access to Beijing Daxing International Airport but fewer student-friendly amenities and longer commutes to central Beijing.
  • Tongzhou offers affordable rents and green spaces but is distant from universities, making commutes challenging for students.
  • Sanlitun features a vibrant international scene and many shopping options but is less budget-friendly for newcomers.
