Rent in Poznań
Poznań is Poland's fifth-largest city and one of its strongest regional economies, anchored by trade fairs, logistics, automotive, and a fast-growing IT and shared-services sector. For renters it offers a compact, walkable centre, good tram coverage, and a deep student market around its universities. Rents are noticeably more affordable than in Warsaw or Kraków, which makes it a popular base for relocators, students, and professionals who want city life without capital-city prices.
The citywide median asking rent for a 2-room flat sits around 3600 PLN/month in 2025. Demand is led by students (over 100,000 across the city's universities), expat professionals at the international employers around the fairgrounds and business parks, and young Polish families. Asking rents climbed sharply in 2022-2023 and have since flattened into modest, single-digit annual growth, with the tightest competition in the central districts each September.
The median asking rent for a 2-room flat in Poznań, Poland is 2 559 zł per month as of 2026-09-11 (PolandRent, n=856); the p25–p75 fair range is 2 300 zł–2 850 zł, ranking Poznań #6 of 49 covered Polish cities.
