It is still possible to find properties from around £100-£160 a week, as Harrow is quite far out from the centre of the city. Harrow is most convenient for studying at Westminster University's Harrow Campus and isn't too far form the University of Middlesex in nearby Barnet. Expect a long commute to the centre for any of London's main Universities. Harrow is served by multiple stations on the Metropolitan, Piccadilly, Bakerloo and Overground Lines, with: Harrow-on-the-Hill (Metropolitan), North Harrow (Metropolitan), West Harrow (Metropolitan) and Kenton (Bakerloo/Overground) being the main stations.
