Paris Intramuros, always a success
Most of the tenants looking for a place to live in Paris are looking in the capital itself. Tenants look in the arrondissements located in the center of Paris near well-known sites. These districts account for slightly less than 50% of all searches for housing in Paris Intramuros. Conversely, the arrondissements that interest tenants the least are located in the north of Paris, as well as the arrondissements in the hypercenter of the capital where rents are higher.
The outer suburbs are gaining in popularity
Many tenants are choosing to live outside of Paris because the prices are more attractive and sometimes the housing is closer to their place of work or study.
With housing being excessively expensive within Paris, the alternative of the suburbs that make up the greater Paris area can be a solution. Perfect for a family wanting a larger space. The surrounding cities are just as welcoming and allow you to enjoy the advantages of the capital without the disadvantages. The cost of living in Paris is very high. Real estate prices are 88% more expensive than in the rest of France on average.
Departments such as Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-St-Denis are thus popular. Conversely, the departments least sought after by students in Ile-de-France are Val d'Oise and Seine-et-Marne with less than 5% of requests.
