Prices and rent
Renting a 50 m² flat costs about 12,000 kr a month and a 70 m² one about 14,400 kr, excluding power, by SSB's rental survey. SSB gives rent per town or bydel, not per neighbourhood, so the figure is adjusted by the price level here.

- Vadmyra skole (nearest primary school for most homes here)
Pupils in years 5–7: well-being 4.2 of 5, close to the national average (4.1); 19 % bullied, close to the national share (13 %) (Elevundersøkelsen 2024–26, 118 answers) - Sandgotna skole (nearest lower secondary school for most homes here)

The nearest school is not always the catchment school: check with the kommune. The pupil survey says how pupils feel at school, not how much they learn. Small schools and grades are hidden by Udir.
