Описание: Moving to Montpellier, France 🇫🇷 Apartments, Rent Prices & Best Neighbourhoods (2026 Guide)

Thinking about moving to Montpellier, France? 🇫🇷
In this detailed guide, I break down apartment rental prices, best neighbourhoods, cost of living, lifestyle, transportation, and expat life in one of the fastest-growing cities in southern France.

After visiting twice (including winter), I explore whether Montpellier is truly livable year-round — and whether it could be the perfect retirement or relocation destination.

You’ll learn:

✅What it costs to rent a 1, 2, or 3-bedroom apartment
✅ Best neighbourhoods like Écusson, Les Arceaux & Port Marianne
✅ Pros & cons of each area
✅ Transportation & TGV access
✅ Expat community insights
✅ Weather (including the Mistral wind)
✅ Is Montpellier better than Nice?

With over 300,000 residents and 80,000+ students, Montpellier offers Mediterranean access, strong healthcare, rent control, and vibrant cultural life — without Côte d’Azur prices.

If you're planning to retire in France, relocate to Europe, or find an affordable city near the Mediterranean, this guide will help you decide.
