Your last question in the survey is one interesting feature.
The biggest fear is to find someone with who it will work out living together not only because of your and his/hers personality but also the financial aspect. Finding a way to be sure someone will pay their part of the rent is pretty hard ... not like YOU can do credit checks to see if your roommate has good payment history.
The biggest concerns I saw and when talking with students we found was :
1. Financial aspect ; how are you sure everybody pays their part ?
2. Cleaning the place and keeping it clean.
3. Calm . You need time to study and can't have people around to party or hang out every day/night.
4. Respect. In everything from cleaning up to paying rent to just basic living manners.
5. Girlfriend/Boyfriend rule : They can come.. sometimes even sleep but staying there all the time big NO.
6. The fridge
7. Dealing with parkins and extra parkings for those who have cars.
that's all that comes to my mind for now.
Good luck to your project !
