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.
Other neighbourhoods by the two rivers are compared in the guides Štýřice or Staré Brno and Husovice or Zábrdovice.
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.
