Which to choose
Look at the rows of the table that matter most to you:
- You want to get to the centre quickly: the rows with the trip to the centre by day and at night.
- You want shops and places around: the rows with restaurants and shops within 500 metres.
- You want quiet and green space: the rows with noise, parks and green space.
- You have children: the rows with schools and playgrounds, and the catchment school of the exact address.
- Price decides: the first row of the comparison and the guides on how much rent costs in Brno and cheap housing in Brno.

Before you sign a lease, check the flat itself: two addresses in the same neighbourhood can differ in catchment school, the walk to the stop and how close the main road is.
