The best neighborhoods in Helsinki are Eira, Ullanlinna, Kaivopuisto, Punavuori and Töölö in the southern parts of the city. Kulosaari, Munkkiniemi, Lehtisaari and Kuusisaari are a bit farther away, but still worth visiting. Enjoying the most beautiful coastline of Helsinki, these area is a must-see.

With more than 70 000 university students, Helsinki is a vibrant student city. It is also safe and compact with both urban culture and nature at your doorstep.

In summary, most students opt for living in halls during their first year of university, before finding a group of friends to move into a private house with. However, most unis will allow you to stay in halls for the full duration of your degree (and some might even offer rent discounts for doing so).
