It was reported in the media that students rented rooms or houses in the north due to the high rent prices in the south of Cyprus.
According to Politis newspaper, students in the south rented a house from the north to study in the south of Nicosia.

The newspaper also included interviews with some students on the subject.
According to the news, students talked about high house rents, as well as the fact that landlords try to deceive themselves for ruined houses.
