Great nightlife and links to the city

When people are heading off to university, one of the main things
that they will be trying to find with any place they choose to live
is something which offers them not only a great place to study and
socialise, but also provides the opportunity to get out there and
feel like they are living the true student life. Because of this,
things such as a good nightlife, and easy links into the city will
be important and pivotal in any decision-making process.
For this reason, those who are looking to attend universities in
London will need to make sure that they not only look at the centre
of the city, but also at the surrounding boroughs and the county of
Essex. A great place for a real student lifestyle which does not
cost the same as prime London can be found when looking for
property to rent in Basildon.
Basildon is located in the county of Essex, and is one of the most
densely populated areas of the UK, which is mostly inhabited by
people who work in the city of London, thanks to its rather
favourable proximity of just 25 miles from the capital. This means
that students heading into the city's universities will find
themselves with great transport links to take them into where they
need to be to study.
From Basildon, the road network is fairly favourable, while those
students who choose to travel into the city via rail can find
themselves commuting from Basildon Station to Fenchurch Street in
just 35 minutes.
Because of the size of the town, there are also a high number of
stores, meaning that students do not need to travel into the city
whenever they need to get some shopping, while it also has a number
of places where those living in the area can enjoy a quiet drink
with friends, offering the perfect opportunity to relax at the
weekend and forget about the strains of studying.
