Hi there,

I lived in Edinburgh for 5 years... cheapest option to live is probably around the Leith area which is very close to city central.  The transport is pretty good too. My rent was always about £260 - £300 per month.  It's quite expensive but if you shop around you'll find a good deal.  Montogomery Street/Easter Road is a nice area and pretty cheap.
Hope this helps - edinburgh is amazing! :)
