HousingCost of living C

The estimated advertised rent of an apartment in Muntzenheim is €12.50/m² a month

Rents are the ministry’s estimates of advertised rents, not rents actually paid.

France’s property-sale records don’t cover Alsace and Moselle, which keep their own land register, so the Cost Grade here uses rent alone.
