None of the students who reviewed Puebla stayed in a student residence, which usually means there is little university-run housing open to exchange students. Plan on a shared flat or coliving instead.
Cheap student accommodation in Puebla
The cheapest rent reported in Puebla was $378 a month, against a median of $378. What separates the two is almost always the same three things: sharing a flat rather than renting alone, living one transport zone out from the centre, and signing for a full semester rather than month to month.
Erasmus housing in Puebla
Erasmus and exchange students in Puebla face the same problem: a lease that has to start and end with the semester, signed from another country, often without a local guarantor. That is why coliving or shared flat is the most common answer here rather than a standard rental. The 5 reviews below come from students who did exactly that.
