Joking aside, I'd imagine the East side - Cowley etc - would likely be cheaper. Travel links into centre is OK (public transport). Cars are discouraged in Oxford.

Bicester to Oxford in rush hour is a bit grim, although they have improved the A34 roundabout above the M40.

Rooms in Marston are cheap enough :y Buses run from the shops there and are frequent enough :y

Only downside is; if Blackbird Leys is central Beruit, Marston is the posh bit...



...of Beruit :'( Probably the worst 6 months of my meagre existence thus far :-\
