Hello! I have never been to Finland but Prague is a wonderful place.

I am not an expert in salaries but I'm working for a real estate agency with Prague office so I can tell you a bit about the districts & rents.

Prague 2 and Prague 5 are quite popular among young expats, while Prague 4 is popular with expatriate families.

I work for a real estate agency and our Prague 2 & Prague 5 flats start from about 450 or 500 EUR. We offer higher end/luxury properties so you might be able to find lower rents in the same area.

You can read an overview of Prague districts on our website: http://athome-network.com/Property_in_P … rague.html
and some further introductions to Prague on our blog: www.athomenetwork.blogspot.com

Good luck and let me know if we can offer you any additional assistance!
