Finding affordable rental apartments in Paris can be challenging, as rental prices tend to be high across the city. However, there are still some areas in Paris where you may find relatively more affordable rental options compared to central and upscale neighborhoods. Here are a few areas known for more affordable rental prices:
20th Arrondissement (XXe arrondissement): The 20th arrondissement, located in the northeastern part of Paris, offers relatively more affordable rental options compared to central neighborhoods. Areas like Belleville and Ménilmontant have a diverse population, a vibrant cultural scene, and a mix of residential buildings. This arrondissement offers a more authentic Parisian experience away from the tourist crowds.
19th Arrondissement (XIXe arrondissement): The 19th arrondissement, situated in the northeastern part of Paris along the Canal de l'Ourcq, is known for its parks, green spaces, and affordable housing options. Neighborhoods like La Villette and Belleville offer a mix of residential buildings, cultural venues, and recreational areas. The 19th arrondissement has a diverse population and a relaxed atmosphere.
18th Arrondissement (XVIIIe arrondissement): The 18th arrondissement, located in the northern part of Paris, is home to the iconic neighborhood of Montmartre, known for its bohemian atmosphere and picturesque streets. While parts of Montmartre can be touristy, other areas like La Chapelle and La Goutte d'Or offer more affordable rental options. The 18th arrondissement has a diverse population, lively street life, and a mix of cultural attractions.

Areas like Butte-aux-Cailles and Quartier Asiatique have a diverse population, a mix of residential buildings, and a range of amenities. The 13th arrondissement has undergone redevelopment in recent years and offers modern housing options.

Suburbs like Saint-Denis, Aubervilliers, and Pantin have good transportation connections to central Paris and offer a mix of residential developments, green spaces, and amenities. These areas can provide a more suburban living environment at a lower cost.
It's important to note that rental prices can vary within each neighborhood, and affordability is relative to individual budgets and preferences. Additionally, while these areas may offer more affordable rental options compared to central Paris, rental prices in Paris overall can be high, and competition for rental properties can be fierce, especially in sought-after areas.
Yes, foreigners can rent longer stay rentals in Paris. Renting accommodation in Paris as a foreigner is a common practice, and there are generally no legal restrictions preventing foreigners from renting apartments or other types of housing for extended periods.
When renting a longer stay rental in Paris as a foreigner, you will typically be required to provide certain documents and meet specific requirements, similar to what is expected of local residents. These requirements may include:
Identification: You will need to provide a valid form of identification, such as a passport or national identity card.
Proof of Income: Landlords often require proof of income to ensure that you can afford the rent. This may include pay stubs, employment contracts, or bank statements. Alternatively, if you're a student or unemployed, you might need a guarantor who can provide proof of income.
References: Some landlords may request references from previous landlords or employers to vouch for your reliability as a tenant. If you don't have French-based references, international references may suffice.
Security Deposit: You will likely be asked to pay a security deposit, typically equivalent to one or two months' rent, which is refundable at the end of the tenancy if the property is in good condition.
Rental Contract: You will need to sign a rental contract (contrat de location) outlining the terms and conditions of the rental agreement. It's essential to review the contract carefully before signing and to ensure that you understand your rights and obligations as a tenant.
Residence Status: While being a foreigner doesn't necessarily prevent you from renting in Paris, you might need to demonstrate your legal right to reside in France. This could include having a valid visa, residency permit, or other relevant documentation.
It's also worth noting that some landlords or rental agencies may have specific requirements or preferences, so it's essential to inquire about the rental process and any necessary documentation when searching for accommodation in Paris as a foreigner. Working with a reputable real estate agency or rental platform can help facilitate the rental process and ensure that you find suitable accommodation.
Paris offers various student housing options to cater to the needs of students studying in the city. Some popular student housing options in Paris include:
Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris (CIUP): The CIUP is a large international student campus located in the 14th arrondissement of Paris. It offers accommodation for students from all over the world in individual houses or residences representing different countries. The CIUP provides a multicultural environment, social activities, and facilities such as libraries, sports facilities, and dining halls.
University Halls of Residence (CROUS): CROUS (Centres Régionaux des Œuvres Universitaires et Scolaires) manages student accommodation in Paris and throughout France. These halls of residence offer furnished rooms with shared facilities such as kitchens, bathrooms, and common areas. They are affordable and often located close to universities and public transportation.
Private Student Residences: Paris has several private student residences or student housing complexes that offer modern facilities and amenities. These residences provide furnished rooms or apartments with facilities such as study rooms, communal areas, gyms, and social events. Private student residences often offer flexibility in terms of contract length and lease options.
Flat Shares (Colocations): Renting a room in a shared apartment (colocation or coliving) is a common option for students in Paris. Flat shares allow students to split the cost of rent and utilities, making it a more affordable option. Students can find flat share opportunities through online platforms, classified ads, or student housing websites.
Homestays: Living with a host family can provide students with a culturally immersive experience and opportunities for language practice. Host families offer room and board in their homes and may also provide meals and support. Homestays can be arranged through specialized agencies or platforms, and they offer a more personalized and supportive living environment.
Temporary Accommodation: For students who are still searching for long-term housing or need temporary accommodation upon arrival in Paris, options like hostels, Airbnb rentals, or short-term apartment leases can provide a temporary solution while they secure more permanent housing.
When considering student housing options in Paris, it's essential to consider factors such as location, cost, amenities, safety, and compatibility with your lifestyle and preferences. It's also advisable to start your housing search well in advance, as the demand for student accommodation in Paris can be high, especially during peak periods. Additionally, consulting with your university's international office or housing services can provide valuable assistance and resources in finding suitable student housing in Paris.
