Housing Options
Set in the heart of Southwestern Ontario, London is the perfect mix of city vibes and scenic nature. Boasting beautiful residential areas and a lively entertainment and culture scene, London has a population of more than 400,000, but still has a ‘Forest City’ community feel. Whether you stay in one of our residence buildings, live with your family in Western Apartments or find a great rental on Richmond Row—London will feel like home.
Find Housing While Studying at Western
Whether it is on or off campus, Western offers housing options to suit every lifestyle and the support you’ll need along the way!
On-Campus Housing
Living on campus has its advantages! You’ll be close to class and have access to facilities that will benefit your studies and social life. Not to mention utilities are included, and you’ll have the convenience of amenities needed to succeed in your studies just minutes away.


Residence
The residence experience is like no other. This is your opportunity to meet new friends and enjoy the convenience of living on campus, with amenities and support right where you live! Residence makes it easy for you to meet others and succeed academically, as live-in Student Leaders like Dons and Academic and Leadership Programmers are available to plan events and provide resources. Residence is highly recommended for first-year undergraduate students to aid with the transition to university life. Upper-year students are welcome to live in residence after their first year as a Student Leader, or simply just for the convenience!
