Student Housing 2025: Rent Increases in 21 Cities

The search for student housing in 2025 proves particularly difficult, with rental prices increasing in 21 cities. Limited availability and the rise of short-term rentals exacerbate the situation.

The budget of 300 euros is now considered insufficient, limiting choices to small studios or older apartments with inadequate amenities. Indicatively, in Patras, the increase in rents between 2017-2023 reached 55%, with a further increase of 5%-6% in 2025.

Housing costs absorb 60%-70% of the average monthly salary, making independence difficult. Thus, many students choose schools near their family home to avoid rental costs.

Those moving from the provinces bear the greatest burden, facing high rents and installation costs. Student housing is now a significant challenge.
