Locals Ask
Why is there such a massive gap in m² stats here?
The Fr26.5 to Fr48.5 range is driven by renovations; you're either in a drafty 1960s block or a gut-renovated townhouse with underfloor heating.
Is the investment outlook good for long-term renters?
Supply is virtually frozen, so while the average rent is high, your lease is likely safer than in rapidly gentrifying industrial zones.
How bad is the parking situation really?
It is a disaster; if the flat doesn't come with a private spot, expect to circle the blue zone for twenty minutes every evening.
Is Gotthelf actually better than Bachletten?
It's slightly less pretentious but just as expensive, offering better access to the Kannenfeldpark side of town.
Are utility costs included in the Fr34/m² median?
No, that is the base rent; always budget an extra Fr250-400 for 'Nebenkosten' given the age of these buildings.
