The State of Polish Rent
Warsaw is Poland's most expensive rental market — Łódź its best value.
What it costs to rent across 8 Polish cities and 60 districts, by median 2-room rent.
The spread is enormous
A 2-room flat ranges from 2 500 zł in Bałuty (Łódź) to 6 700 zł in Śródmieście (Warsaw) — the priciest district costs 168% more than the cheapest. Warsaw leads the country, sitting +37% above the national median.
Even within one city, location is everything
The widest gap is in Warsaw, where Śródmieście (6 700 zł) runs 68% more than Białołęka (4 000 zł) — the same city, the same flat size, a very different rent.
