Real Estate / Cost of room in Warsaw? Where to look for accomodation? [31]

Hi,

I will move to Warsaw from Holland on August 16th and am looking for a room. I sent many replies via gumtree in past a couple of days, but I didn't get any response. Do I have to call them to make an appointment? Do most of owners speak English? Thank you for your advice.

Thank you for your advice. I will move to Warsaw for long term. Are foreigners more difficult to rent a room in Warsaw than local people because of culture shock and language barrier?

Hi Monitor,

I just got a response from a house owner who has a room available on Tadeusza Korsaka 6 in Praga, Warsaw. I heard Praga is not safe. What is your opinion about the area of Tadeusza Korsaka 6 in term of safety, particularly for foreigners? Thank you very much for your advice.

Hi Monitor,

Thank you very much for your advice.

You are very good by using scientific statistics to show safety of the area. I am a little nervious because I am a Chinese although I grew up in U.S. Do you think as a Chinese it is more dangerous to live there? By the way, What is the general view to Chinese among Polish people? Thank you very much for your advice.

Thanks very much for your advice Monitor.

Your comment is comforting me. Monitor, you wrote: "but here on the other hand Praga Połódnie belongs to one of more dangerous neighborhoods. It shows number of crimes with use of weapons in 2013 per 10 000 citizens:

But based on above link, I see Praga Polodnie has the same crimes rate with weapons as Wola. Am I wrong? Thank you.
