Where should I live in Lucerne?

We asked digital nomads and expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"Finding a place to live in Lucerne involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from a single room in a shared apartment to a family-sized house. Next, you should research the different neighborhoods in Lucerne to find one that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Some popular areas include the Old Town, which is full of historic charm, and the more modern and bustling district of Neustadt. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online platforms that list available properties in Lucerne, such as Homegate, ImmoScout24, and Comparis. These websites allow you to filter results based on your preferences, such as location, size, price, and type of property. In addition to online listings, you can also contact local real estate agencies. They can provide you with more personalized assistance and may have access to properties that aren't listed online. When you find a property you're interested in, you'll need to arrange a viewing. This is an important step, as it allows you to assess the condition of the property and the surrounding area. If you decide to proceed with a property, you'll need to submit an application. This typically involves providing proof of income and references. In Switzerland, it's common for landlords to require a deposit, which is usually equivalent to one to three months' rent. Finally, if your application is successful, you'll sign a lease agreement. This document outlines the terms and conditions of your tenancy, so it's important to read it carefully. Once the lease is signed and the deposit is paid, you can move into your new home in Lucerne," said one person in Lucerne.
