Suburbs with too few listings to give a reliable median are not shown.
Rent is per bedroom, not per room rented. Each figure is the median weekly asking rent divided by the number of bedrooms, across two- to six-bedroom listings. It is what a share house works out to per head if the rent is split evenly — not an advertised room price, and it assumes every bedroom is taken.
Transport is service frequency, not a commute time. The score reflects how often services run in a suburb, from published timetables. It is not a journey time to this campus, and a high score does not mean a direct route here.
Rents are asking prices. They come from advertised listings rather than signed leases, and distance is measured to the suburb centre rather than door to door.
