Italy and Czech Republic: details that can change the decision

Read country averages alongside local housing choices and access to the same product.

Italy · The impact of housing choice

Italy has 2 recorded cities whose central one-bedroom rents range from €1,057–€1,523; this is neither a national rent average nor a distribution of all listings.

CityCentre / outside centreSource date
Rome€1,057 / €7652026-09-18
Milan€1,523 / €1,0412026-09-16

Do not relabel national salary as pay in these cities. Compare like-sized homes, included utilities and commuting costs; a lower rent may not translate into an equal saving.

Czech Republic · The impact of housing choice

Czech Republic has 2 recorded cities whose central one-bedroom rents range from CZK 21,327–CZK 24,248; this is neither a national rent average nor a distribution of all listings.
