Prices and rent
A 70 m² flat costs about 3.4 mill. kr and a 140 m² detached house about 5.5 mill. kr, by SSB's price model. This is modelled, not actual sale prices.
Renting a 50 m² flat costs about 10,300 kr a month and a 70 m² one about 12,400 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.
Schools
- Salhus skule (nearest primary school for most homes here)
Pupils in years 5–7: well-being 4.1 of 5, close to the national average (4.1); bullying share not published for enough grades (Elevundersøkelsen 2024–26, 69 answers) - Marikollen ungdomsskole (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.
