Living in a house in the 'burbs has it advantanges - lots of room, a garage for working on the car (if you're lucky) and a more room inside as well. But there are disadvantages - doing the gardening, houses are harder to keep clean, having parties sucks because you have to clean up afterwards, heating/cooling costs are generally more and there's more to take care of.
If you're studying and are time-poor, than an apartment (in Aussieland we still call 'em flats  ) is ideal.
If you have the time to do the gardening, and want space (and have time) to work on the car then rent in 'burbs.
I tried both - large share house (lots of parties, complaints by the nieghbors and shitloads of mowing) and 2 bedroom flat (way easier to clean, keep clean and less to worry about) and I'd say go for the flat. You can do all that "house in burb's" stuff when you buy your own house, rather than having to continually maintain someone else's investment.

I believe the term Flat is used by the English. The Orrrrrstraaaaaliannnns call 'em units
