Summary
€3,350 in Geneva and €470 in Skopje marked the top and bottom of Eurostat’s latest survey of average monthly rents for two-bedroom flats across 40 European cities.
London was the only capital above €3,000 at €3,050, while Dublin and Stockholm were the priciest EU capitals at €2,650; Paris led the EU’s Big Four at €2,500.
Sofia at €900 and Nicosia at €910 were the cheapest EU capitals, while Brussels sat mid-table at €1,450, ranking 22nd of 40 cities.
Eurostat said housing absorbs 23.6% of EU household spending including utilities, and the rent figures themselves exclude charges and utilities for unfurnished, good-quality homes.
The data cover the second half of 2025, with experts citing strong urban demand, limited supply, higher interest rates and construction costs as key drivers of widening rent pressure.
