Quick answer

What does Cheapest cities to rent in Sweden show?

Jönköping, Sweden has the lowest average net rent (nettokalt) of the 30 cities compared: 6.88 EUR/m²/month (Eurostat, 2009-12-31).

How this list is built

Every row is a published average net rent (nettokalt) observation measured in EUR/m²/month, ranked lowest first. The values were observed between 2009 and 2025. A place appears only when it publishes this exact metric, so an absent place means missing data rather than a low value. Only published cities with at least 20,000 residents and city-level observations qualify.

  • Compare the displayed value, unit, source date and geographic grain together.
  • A city label does not change a regional observation into a city measurement.
