How we calculate it, and sources

The bar’s length shows where the number sits among Plzeň’s 25 neighbourhoods: a short bar is one of the lowest in Plzeň, a full one the highest. The vertical mark is the Plzeň average (the neighbourhood in the middle: half of Plzeň has more, half less). The colour says whether that is good: dark green is the best fifth of Plzeň, light green above average, yellow around average, orange below it and red the worst fifth. For rent, travel and noise less is better, for parks, shops and services more. Hover over a bar to see how many neighbourhoods this one beats. The numbers are the same as further down the page and in the “Good for…” profiles.

How we calculate it, and sources

Rent without services and energy for an unfurnished flat over 5 years old in good condition, without a balcony or parking, from rental offers. The Ministry of Finance’s rent map is per cadastral area; for each Plzeň neighbourhood we take its main cadastral area. Monthly = price per m² × the usual floor area of rented flats in the Plzeň Region. Plzeň = the neighbourhoods’ average by population. Actual rents vary with condition, furnishing and floor.

Data up to 6/2026.

How we calculate it, and sources

Contracted = the practice has a contract for that specialty with a health insurer and insurance pays for the care; we name the insurers from the lists published by VZP, ČPZP and VoZP. No contract = no insurer has a contract with it and you pay yourself. A practice without a label works with an insurer that doesn’t publish a list (OZP, ZPŠ, ZPMV or RBP); check the contract with them.

We count the places where care is provided (practice, polyclinic, hospital), not individual doctors, per 1,000 residents of the 2021 census. We can’t count paediatricians per child for a neighbourhood, you’ll find them for the district.
