Advantages: Close to London, Cheap for Students

Disadvantages: A bit grotty

i lived in luton for a year when i was a student at the university, back in 2001. it wasn't the best city in the world, but it certainly wasn't the worst. i remember when we got there we were told there were 53 pubs in the town centre. i'm sure that's not the case now, with the closure of the biggest provider, the vauxhall plant, but it''s still a decent little place and i think it doesn't deserve it's bad reputation.

it has a variety of shops and has a great student nightlife - plenty of cheap clubs and pubs for spending your student loan in. the university itself is getting better and better, and it has great links to london so if you're looking to live near the big smoke but not in it, luton is a great option. i can imagine house prices here are cheaper than most.
