Real Estate / Best area in Krakow to live? [43]
Hands down for me Podgórze and i've lived in the North too. I like Bronowice and Krowodrza but the tenements are much more handsome in Podgórze and it's walkable to most of the key places, plus transport links here are amazing too by Tram.
Plus podgórze feels like the real poland with bundles of coolness, although Gentrification starts to creep in with new trendy places opening up everywhere.
We are also blessed with great parks and if you can live in Stare Podgórze you'll enjoy Park Bednarskiego which is a real joy.

An old post but thought i'd add my bit to it. Firstly in terms of buildings Podgórze remains very handsome, with masses of 100+ year old tenements, blessed with high ceilings and light, and whilst they are not cheap they are much more reasonable than the tenements you pick up in the old town. I live in Stare Podgórze near to Plac Bohatertów Ghetta. I love it here, we've got great parks, brilliant communication links all over the city by tram and bus (although I personally hate buses) and it's an incredibly short walk to Kazmierz if you like that district.
If you prefer to stay away from the kind of kids who haven't realised Kazimierz coolness peaked 5 years ago, then Podgórze would be highly recommended. It has so much going for it, great bars, nice off the beaten track restaurants, great cafes, and it feels like real Poland.
