Rooming flats
University towns and cities face the need to accommodate sizeable student populations. Consequently, they are fertile grounds for housing financialisation and densification, and their neighbourhoods experience studentification. In this article, we consider the nexus of these three phenomena by investigating the production of ‘rooming flats’ in Lodz, Poland. Rooming flats are accommodations delivered usually through a profit-seeking conversion of …
Asset or stigma? Industrial heritage in the lens of territorial capital
Studentification, youthification, and gentrification, all at once? New-builds, newcomers, and near-campus change in a post-industrial city
Higher education growth changes the neighbourhoods of university cities in multiple ways. The most evidenced way is studentification, although researchers also report youthification and gentrification. However, empirical studies on near-campus change through the tri-conceptual prism of studentification, youthification, and gentrification are recent and limited to North America. Therefore, we apply it to another context. In this paper, we look at …
The ‘gown’ unconcerned with the town? Residential satisfaction of university students living in off-campus private accommodation
This paper aims to extend the understanding of residential satisfaction determinants of students living in off-campus private accommodation and thus contribute to the studentification debate. Our study is based on an original dataset derived from a survey conducted among students in Lodz, Poland and Turin, Italy. Using the ordered logit model, we tested the impact of neighbourhood and accommodation attributes, as well as personal and household ch…
Is the ‘student city’ lost? The rhythms of Lodz as a consumption‐oriented student city through the Covid‐19 pandemic lens
The COVID-19 pandemic calls into question the hosting of students as an urban growth formula after the spread of online education. Therefore, we look at Lodz, Poland, to understand how student cities operate during the pandemic and gain insights into their futures. We unfold the prepandemic and intrapandemic rhythms of students' presence and activities in Lodz's time-space and their attitudes toward the postpandemic future. We show that the pande…
The student urban leisure sector
The case study of the student urban leisure sector in Lodz, Poland, presented in this paper encourages the reader to look at cities through the lens of the expansion of consumerism and higher education. While the mainstream of the literature dealing with students as an urban population covers accommodation issues, this paper focuses on the development of the leisure economy. To these ends, it looks at students as customers and workers of the leis…
Nuancing student geographies
The article contributes to the debate that links student geographies with urban change. It has been argued that students reshape urban geographies through the creation of distinctive “student areas.” However, the literature has often done so focusing on one specific component (e.g. accommodation or leisure) and one specific city or neighborhood. Therefore, we aim to nuance the debate over student geographies in cities. To this end, we use the “st…
