The cost of living in Fukui is relatively inexpensive, and living in university dormitories or private apartments near the campus is a good way to reduce living expenses. There are three university dormitories on the Bunkyo Campus and one on the Matsuoka Campus, and they are very reasonably priced and popular. On the Bunkyo Campus, it is not always possible for all applicants to move in a dormitory, but there are many private apartments for students around the Bunkyo Campus, with rent ranging from 30,000 to 40,000 yen per month.
