Real Estate / May you confirm that Podgórze (Kraków) is a great area to live in? [13]

I will be neither a tourist nor a student but I really appreciate your comment. I most definitely look like a foreigner and I don't want to have any potential problems with my neighbours because of accent or my skin color.

I think I'd have to find something near the other park, Blonia as it's near city center.

Hi everybody,

It's been some days I'm reading everything I can about Poland in this forum as I was considering to accept a long term assignment there.

Here are my priorities in my search for the perfect place:

- Be at a 10mn maximum distance from my office (located on Wadowicka street)
- Have a nearby park, because three things: 1. I have a labrador dog who loves to run, 2. I love to a run, 3. I am more a countryside guy, so the more green pastures, the merrier

- Residential area with all commodities because of the next bullet-point
- Good public transportation service as I don't plan to buy a bring a car

I have studied a little, and thanks to Google Maps, I found the Bednarskiego Park which seems to be awesome in term of landscape and space. Moreover dogs seems also to be allowed :))) As this park is located in Podgórze, between my office and the market square, I was like "Man, it's the ideal place to search".

But I prefer to have the input of people actually living in Kraków. That means you guys!
What do you think about this area? Is it really an ideal place considering what I'm searching for? Did I miss something?

Btw, thanks you all for all the great information you all posted on this forum, you people are awesome for us, sharing all those interesting information about your country!
