I'm gonna be moving there from the Tri-city at the end of Jan, so any advice from locals or expats on best/worst areas to rent one bed apartment (Say 35-45m2) would be much appreciated? Any Letting agents that you know off etc.

Also how much per month do you reckon for the rent, bills etc? I'll be working in the Wola district off Aleja Jana Pawel II, if that helps.

Stay away from the center :). Expect to get an apartment in a "blok" (a group of 4-8 store apartment buildings). Renting - I guess about 1400 PLN per month, but it depends.

Mokotow is a well-known street and area in Warsaw I don't know about the other.

There are many nice areas. Best is to get in contact with the estate agents. Mokotów is a beautiful old area of Warsaw. Some of the houses there still have fruit trees in the garden.

Hi, I don't know if you considered Kabaty/Ursynow (south of Mokotow) but I have an apartment for sale there. It's a great area on the Metro line, close to the Kabaty woods, Cycle routes, shops(Tesco Real Auchan) and schools and other amenities.

you can see my apartment at this link :-

Mokotów is a beautiful old area of Warsaw. Some of the houses there still have fruit trees in the garden.

Some blocks in Mokotów even have flowers in the garden, and real grass...

Let's face it central Warsaw is an urban jungle. Places like Ursynów, Bemowo, Gocław look like prison cell block H - they are hideous carbuncles on the landscape, scars on the human collective soul.

The only places to live in Warsaw are Mokotów, Zoliborz, Saska Kepa and perhaps a few small areas near the Old or New Town, the rest of Warsaw's townships are a bit like Soweto, or just plain inhuman.
