How to read this map
Turn on Universities in the Places menu to see them on the map, alongside any measure such as rents or yields. They show as dots until you zoom in. Select an area for its full figures.
Places come from OpenStreetMap, which volunteers edit, and we remove entries that are clearly mislabelled. Rent and price are for the whole area, not for homes next to a particular university, and "-" means too few deals to show. Larger areas naturally hold more.
