flatsharing
Splitting living space
Flatsharing is the arrangement of living with others in a shared apartment or flat, typically splitting rent and common spaces.
Common among young professionals and students in cities where housing costs are high.
British usage—Americans would say having roommates or sharing an apartment.
Flatsharing in London helped me save money after university.
