Results and Analysis

Findings

Out of 20 students interviewed. Once we got the results we can make two main groups refering where are they from: Group Europe( 9 people ) and Group Asia( 10 people). We have other group from Africa but it's just 1 person who answered from Africa and it's not fair to compare with the other two. So we could say that the 50% of the people are from Europe and the rest from Asia.

In the question about how far they live from the university there is an important difference. 4 out 9 europeans said they are living between 1 hour and 1 hour and a half and other 3 europeans are living in a range of 15 minutes and 30 minutes; instead 80% of the asians live between 5 and 45 min.

70 % of the europeans live in a flat by theirselfs, however asians live equaly in a flat by theirselfs, shared accommodation, halls of residence. Obviusly most of the europeans found where to sleep thanks to friends or a website/Newspaper, but asian students found it by the university, agents and friends too 30% each option.

Most of the europeans feel safe all the time in his area ( zone 2 and zone 1), instead the asians just 40% feel safe all the time, other 30 % most of the time, 20% not at all and 10% absolutely not.

A Good difference is the amount of money they pay because 40% of the europeans are paying 50-80 pounds per week and the 40% of the asians are paying more than 200 pounds sper week.Both groups are satisfied with their accommodation with more than 90% in each group and the main problems they find with more than 60% is taht it's too expensive and the location.

Analysis

These results show us at the first time that there is not a lot students from South America, Hardly none from Africa; however, there are from Asia and Europe in the same ratio ( counting the 20 people interviewed).

If we take the two main groups and looking the results we could make two different groups of answers, simialirities and differences.

The similiarities seem to be that they are both satisfied with their accommodation but they both think that is too expensive or the location is not as good are they want to be.

We could find the diferences in the other wuestion like what kind of accomodation they are living in, because none of the europeans lives in a hall of residence, instead there are 20% of the asians who live there.

The most important think is the amount of money they pay per week. The mayor group of europeans ( 40%) are paying less than 80 pounds and the other mayor group from Asia is paying more than 200 pounds per week. Thinking on it I could say that asian people who comes here are richer than the europeans or they are use to pay this much like in Tokyo or I don't really know the exact reason because the zones they use to live are zone 2 and 3 the asians, perhaps the europeans in zone 1 and 2.

We could make a conclussion of these research saying that the amount of people we interviewed is really small to think in any real conclussion and make some other questions to find the difference between quantity of money they pay per week.
