Given the option most students would want to live within walking distance to the
campus, but that's not always possible.Where you live is greatly determined by how much you can afford and importantly what's available at the time you're looking. Often it's more convenient to live further from the campus but be
closer to shopping centres and frequent transport. Below is the top 20 suburbs
international students at QUT have chosen to live in. The data is based on student
addresses and was last updated on November 2006. (km = km from General Post Office
