Choosing the right location

Looking for an apartment to shelter your
moments of creativity and consist a “state of
mind” for you, your family and friends? Consider
the following:

Public transportation
› Are transportation links good?
› What is the public transport like in the area?
How many metro / tram / (night) bus stations or
taxis are close by?
› How far is the nearest metro / tram / bus
station?

Moving around
› Are streets, sidewalks and alleys well
maintained?
› Is there allocated parking? How difficult is to
get a parking permission?
› Is this a good neighborhood for cycling? Are
there sufficient bicycle lanes and stands?
› What about the traffic volume?

Community
› Walk around the property. What do passengers
say about the neighborhood?
› What are the neighbors like?
› Does it feel like a friendly community?
› Any churches or other places of worship close
by?

Safety
› What is the crime level like in the area?
› Is there enough street light at night?
› Are there any parks around? Look for past
incidents as a crime indicator.

Noise
› Is the area noisy? Is it near main roads,
railway / tram lines or flight paths? Any noisy
clubs, pubs or restaurants around?
› What is the condition of nearby properties? Any
constructions to be expected?
› Are there any known plans for development in
the wider area?
