Barking and Dagenham and Bexley are the London boroughs with the cheapest rent, according to this MoneySupermarket research.
They both cost on average £442 per month, per person — based on the total cost of renting a three-bedroom flat.
The other three cheapest boroughs are:
Havering – £450 per month
Enfield – £533 per month
Hillingdon – £600 per month
At the other end of the scale is Westminster — an eye-watering average of £14,022 per per month, per person (so that’s why no one knows anyone who lives in Westminster).
As for the quality of living you might expect for the relatively thrifty £442 per month… that’s not touched upon in the report.
