Accommodation
Rental prices in Uppsala can vary greatly. How affordable your accommodation is depends on the type of housing you choose and the standard you want.
Living as a lodger in someone’s home is often one of the cheapest options. You can find rooms for rent between SEK 2,900 and 6,000 per month. If you prefer to live on your own, a one-room apartment typically costs between SEK 5,500 and 9,000 per month. Renting with someone you know can be a good option; a two-room apartment usually costs between SEK 8,000 and 10,000 per month, while a three-room apartment can be found for SEK 10,000 to 14,000 per month.
Transport
If you live relatively centrally in Uppsala, you can easily get to most places by bike or bus. If you live a bit outside the city, it might be useful to have a car, but it is also possible to manage with public transportation. Check the bus options near your accommodation.
