If there is anything to see in Helsinki, there is a good chance that it can be found in Kamppi. This district is found right in the center of Finland’s capital city. With historic churches and museums at every corner there is always something to do. Convenience is also key here with most of Helsinki’s shopping centers located in this central neighborhood. It also goes without saying that apartments in Kamppi benefit from some of Helsinki’s best nightlife. The list of bars and restaurants in the area goes on and on! On the flip side, renting in Kamppi can be expensive – something worth thinking about as Finland is already one Europe's most expensive cities to live in.
For years Vallila was considered a working-class neighborhood and it still has its roots in industry, with there still being a lot of small but thriving workshops dotted around the area. Because of the cheaper cost of living many students and artists migrated to the area and Vallila is still enjoying a period of gentrification. Apartments in Vallila can therefore benefit from some great nightspots and café's though this does mean that prices are on the increase – so they time is right to rent an apartment in Vallila before prices inevitably skyrocket. A mainly residential area, Vallila is famous in Helsinki because of the number of wooden houses that have stood strong since the early 1900s!
Renting an apartment in Itaksus is the perfect option for many expats and indeed locals who live Helsinki. Just a few kilometers from the city center itself, it is fantastically located and connected to the rest of Helsinki by fantastic public transport links! Prices have stayed on the lower end for a while here and this has brought about a fantastic melting pot of cultures! As well as apartments in Itakskus benefitting from a great international flavor, renters will get to make the most of this flavor with some of the greatest diversity of food and dishes in the city!
Let's make no bones about it, Helsinki is an expensive city. Although education is free and of a very high standard, lifestyle costs can put a lot of financial pressure on people moving to the city. Therefore, a lot of people turn to renting a room out instead of a whole apartment. Instead of settling for a more private space, a little further away from the city center many expats and young professionals can benefit from a better location and a ready-made social circle by renting a room in Helsinki. Because of this emerging market there are more and more rooms to rent appearing in Helsinki with some fantastic deals to be had.
While many students prefer to stay close to campus or indeed in dedicated student accommodation, there is an increasing number of students who are looking to find their own accommodation – either renting small flats or finding rooms to rent. If you are interested in doing this then look no further than the district of Kallio. Until recently the area has been predominantly working class but has enjoyed a bohemian takeover – indeed while costs of living are low (relative to Helsinki), there are some fantastic restaurants, bars and boutique shops to enjoy and with a large student population – you will feel right at home!
Helsinki is fantastically easy to get around by public transport! Operating a 1 ticket for all policy, users can take advantage of the bus, tram, metro and even the ferry! Helsinki also prides itself on being an extremely bike friendly city with many of the bike paths taking direct but scenic routes through the city's parks and forests.
