What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Prague?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Prague is like. They answered...
"Many expats like centrally located apartments in neighbourhoods like Prague 1 & 2. These historic areas offer easy access to sights, restaurants, and a lively atmosphere. Expect apartments to be smaller, usually up to 100 m2 / 2 bedrooms, but there are some larger apartments too. Period features like high ceilings, ornate mouldings, and hardwood floors add a touch of Prague's magic. Families with children often seek larger apartments or houses in quieter districts like Prague 4, 5, or 6. These areas offer more green space, parks, and backyards. Proximity to international schools is a big factor for families choosing a neighbourhood. Most international schools are in Prague 4 & 6. For those seeking a contemporary lifestyle, newer apartment buildings offer modern amenities like gyms, rooftop terraces, and underground parking. These are often located on the city's outskirts but usually have good public transportation connections," wrote Irena Economou from Urban Address Prague.

"We live in an apartment complex close to downtown Prague (Praha 2, Nove Mesto). Our apartment has a small garden, a common area, a swimmingpool and fitness facilities. Other expats live in our building, but many expat friends live in houses outside of town," remarked another expat in Prague, Czech Rep.
