I for example found a 35 m^2 apartment in Espoo that's 542 €/month. I rented a similar size apartment in Espoo from a private company for about 800 €/month some years back. The safety deposit is also 0 €. My apartment had a very cheap safety deposit - 200 €, but that is probably too much if you're homeless. Some might charge way more, like two months worth of rent, which would've been 1600 € for me.
They also ignore payment deliquencies, which make it very hard to find an apartment on the free market.
- ex3ndr 5y agoThis is a price of 200m^2 flat in the center of Saint Petersburg, Russia. With ~same prices for food that makes ~x3 to the price of food. In what world this is ok for homeless to pay that much?
- maqp 5y agoFinnish social welfare includes free medical/dental care and drugs. The social welfare and housing support total about 1200€ / month. So after bills, they have between 400-700€ / month for food, clothing etc. It's not anything fancy, but it will keep you off the streets, begging.
