If Perth is the overachieving older sibling, Bunbury is the chill younger one who somehow has it all figured out. Located about 175 km south of Perth, this coastal city is where students go to study, surf, and actually breathe.
The best part about student living in Bunbury? It gives you everything — beaches, nightlife, shopping, and culture — without the chaos of a major city. The waterfront district is full of cafés, galleries, and weekend markets, while the Koombana Bay area is the go-to spot for dolphin watching, paddleboarding, or just lazy Sunday walks.
Bunbury is built around student-friendly living. You’ll find late-night food options (because assignments never end before midnight), public transport that actually runs on time, and a growing number of co-working cafés perfect for study sessions. It’s also a city that’s safe, affordable, and walkable — a rare trio for students in Australia.
From a student’s perspective, Bunbury is big enough to keep life interesting but small enough that you won’t spend your entire day in transit. You can hit a morning class, grab lunch at Market Eating House, chill at Back Beach, and still be home in time for Netflix or a part-time job shift.
Culturally, Bunbury has grown from being “that regional city near Perth” to a vibrant hub for young professionals and students. The city’s art scene is alive — from street murals to weekend exhibitions at Bunbury Regional Art Gallery — and the food? Absolutely worth the calories.
The cost of living here is another reason students love it. Compared to Perth or Sydney, you’ll spend way less on rent and entertainment. That means more savings for weekend trips or brunches you’ll pretend were “networking events.”
Student Accommodation Bunbury options are perfectly aligned with the city’s laid-back vibe — modern, clean, and minutes away from campuses and the ocean.
