A 1BHK flat in Mauritius costs around MUR 22,023 a month in the city centre and around MUR 14,978 outside it, based on crowd-sourced cost data. Rent can take up 40 to 50 percent of a student's monthly budget, so your location choice matters a lot.

A 1BHK in Mauritius costs around MUR 22,023 (approx INR 44,409) a month in the city centre and MUR 14,978 (approx INR 30,203) outside it, based on crowd-sourced cost data. Rent alone can take up 40 to 50 percent of your monthly budget.

What the gap means

  • A 1BHK in the city centre costs about MUR 7,045 (approx INR 14,206) more than one outside it, roughly 47 percent higher.
  • A 3BHK shows the same pattern, at about MUR 8,025 (approx INR 16,182) more in the centre.
  • Moving from a 1BHK to a 3BHK outside the centre adds about MUR 16,820 (approx INR 33,918) a month.

My Advice

Rent varies by area and over time, so treat these figures as planning numbers and check live listings near your campus. Living slightly outside the centre is the easiest way to cut your largest monthly cost.
