What is the type of shared apartment lease at Chez Nestor in Toulouse?

Each tenant at Chez Nestor will always be bound to one lease type. Your lease will be individual, which means that each roommate must pay rent independently. You will not have to arrange with other tenants to make a single payment of the total rent for the unit. Moreover, you are not jointly liable in case of non-payment of rent by one of the tenants. The individual lease is therefore the most secure solution in a shared apartment, and it is the only type of contract you will have to sign at Nestor.

What is the cost of living in a shared apartment in Toulouse?

The cost of living in Toulouse is much higher than in most French cities and this is due to the high rental pressure in the city but also because Toulouse is a very attractive city to live in.  In addition to being the fourth most populous city in France, Toulouse is a large city with a thriving economy, very popular due to its employment base linked to Airbus and its aeronautical industry, many French and foreign nationals come to live in the pink city. This has the effect of driving up prices in Toulouse and therefore inevitably the amount of rent or shared accommodation. Although the amounts to be paid are relatively high, they are overall a little less expensive than in Lyon (about 10% less) and much less expensive than in Paris (about 30% less), Toulouse nevertheless remains an agglomeration where the price of rent is on the rise. However, this data must be put into perspective by the fact that average salaries are also rather high in this city.  Moreover, the career opportunities are particularly interesting in many fields. Add to this the very pleasant living environment, the mild weather and a very appreciable southern accent and you have the explanation for the attractiveness and the rising cost of living in Toulouse.

Transportation in Toulouse

Toulouse does not have a very well-developed transportation system, but the metro, tramway and bus lines cover the vast majority of the city. With its two metro lines A and B, its streetcar line and its various transports linked to the SNCF, you should easily be able to get around the city. If that wasn't enough, you can always count on more than 45 bus lines to get you to your destination. The city is currently working on the creation of new metro lines to ensure even more fluidity in the movements of its inhabitants.

Student housing in Toulouse sector 1

Sector 1 is located in the hypercenter of Toulouse (with also a part of sector 2 and sector 5). You will find the well known neighborhoods of Capitole, Arnaud Bernard, Amidonniers or Les Chalets. Being extremely well located in the city, rentals and shared apartments are quite rare and booked quickly. It is also the most expensive real estate sector in the city. Very pleasant to live in because of its many bars, stores and amenities, but also because of the fact that it is crossed by the banks of the Garonne, this district is ideal for outings with roommates but also to visit the Capitole square and palace, the Jacobins convent and its theater, the Notre Dame de la Daurade basilica without forgetting the famous banks of the Garonne or the Saint-Pierre square where students, families and colleagues come to meet to enjoy a pleasant meeting place! Never far from the metro and bus lines, sector 1 will always lead your roommate to the right place!

Student housing in Toulouse sector 2

Sector 2, also known as the left bank of Toulouse, is mainly located in the hyper-center of Toulouse with the famous Saint-Cyprien district but also other districts such as Croix de Pierre, Fontaine-Lestang or Casselardit to name a few.  Except for the Saint Cyprien neighborhood which offers rather high rents for shared apartments, the other neighborhoods are more affordable but further from the city center. With the metro line A and the T1 tramway running through it, sector two will always be accessible via public transport.

Student housing in Toulouse sector 3

Sector 3, also known as the North sector, will be the most affordable if you want to share a flat at Chez Nestor in Toulouse. With neighborhoods like Minimes, Sept Deniers or the very funny Trois-Cocus, you'll find much more residential areas served by the metro line B and the tramway line 2.

Student housing in Toulouse sector 4

The eastern sector is sector 4, just like sector 3, it is much more residential although close to the city center, especially in the Lapujade and Joliment neighborhoods. The A and C metros pass through here to serve the entire eastern part of Toulouse. It is a great area to live with roommates since you will be close to the city center, schools and rents will be more affordable.

Student housing in Toulouse sector 5

Sector 5 of Toulouse is located in the south-east of the city and is divided into 3 large districts. It is mainly residential and is located in the heights. It is a place very appreciated by our roommates because different universities are present there like the faculty of pharmacy or the university Paul Sabatier which are connected by the line A of the subway. With its parks and green spaces, sector 5 is very appreciated by hikers, cyclists and picnic enthusiasts! Although a bit far from the city center, sector 5 is a pleasant place to live for those who want to move into a shared apartment in Toulouse and are looking for peace and quiet while living in a big city. In addition, the Toulouse Saint-Agne train station is nearby, which can be very convenient for your travels! 

Student housing in Toulouse sector 6

Sector 6 of Toulouse is divided into 5 large suburban neighborhoods and has several activity zones. Far enough from the city center, it is not the most interesting area for a future roommate because the amenities are not very present for the inhabitants of the area. Although the metro A serves sector 6, most of the neighborhoods in zone 6 are old burgs that have been rehabilitated into residential areas. It is therefore not the most suitable area for a student or a young worker looking for activities within walking distance or the excitement of downtown Toulouse.
