Prices for student housing continue to increase across the country, particularly in Berlin and Munich. The report released by the Cologne Institute for Economic Research (IW) on Tuesday shows that student housing is getting ever more expensive and hard to find. Munich had the most expensive average rent for a student flat at €17.14 per square metre. With an average rent of €416 per month, this was a nearly 25 percent increase on 2010 when the average was €333. The least expensive city was Leipzig at €322 - about half of the average student rent in Munich.
