which is better for students to live?
university dormitories or apartment?
In my opinion, living in an apartment is the best way for students because of two reasons. Most of the university dormitories have a shared bathroom and a shared kitchen and it can be frustrating at times especially when you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. For example, I lived in the university dormitories in the summer and it wasn't that great to be honest, I could not cook for myself because the refrigerator was small and couldn't store many food. Apartments have a kitchen and a bathroom all to use for yourself. In addition, apartments have more freedom, you can do whatever you want as long as you pay the rent, don't do any illegal activities and keep the noise down.
