Nottingham is the ninth cheapest city for graduates to live in, which means more nights at Ocean

It placed higher than London, Oxford and Durham


The City of Nottingham has been ranked as the UK's ninth cheapest cities for recent graduates to live in, placing above the country's most expensive student citys London, Oxford, and Reading.

The study, courtesy of Propillo, took into account the mean monthly cost of living and rental price average for individuals one year after graduating in the UK.

Graduates in Nottingham would save an average of £70 a month, which means more nights out at Ocean, more blue VKs, and increased savings for other costs.
