The majority of student housing for UEA is found towards the west of city centre, due to the university's location.

These properties mainly consist of 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom flats and apartments in purpose-built blocks.
Alternatively, the Golden Triangle is a popular student hub for those wanting to be centrally located to both the university campus and the city. The area is boarded by Earlham Road and Newmarket Road, so there are plenty of independent shops, cafes, restaurants to dive into.
