Calling all students! Here’s a quick breakdown of Colchester’s layout to help you pick the perfect spot: 📍 University of Essex - Colchester Campus 4km from the city center Surrounded by student housing but lacks shops/cafés 🏘️🚫 Annoying commute: 1-hour walk or bus ride to downtown for groceries/food 🚌😩 ✨ The Sweet Spot (Grey Zone Highlight!) I’ve scouted the ideal middle-ground area with everything you need: 🛒 Argos supermarket 💪 Gym 🍕 Pizza spot 🍜 Vietnamese restaurant 🚂 Hythe Station (10-min walk for weekend trips!) 🏡 Top 3 Student Apartments (See Slide 3!) I’ve handpicked the best options—Hythe Mills gets my vote for its chic interiors! 😍 ❓ Current Colchester students: Any tips to add? #UniversityOfEssex #ColchesterLife #UKStudentHousing #StudyAbroad
