Living in Vikeland

Vikeland is an area of mostly houses, 12 km from Torvet. Here you get lower prices than elsewhere in Kristiansand. On the downside: little winter sun and a long walk to transit.

Prices and rent

A 70 m² flat costs about 2.5 mill. kr and a 140 m² detached house about 3.2 mill. kr, by SSB's price model. This is modelled, not actual sale prices.

Renting a 50 m² flat costs about 9,000 kr a month and a 70 m² one about 10,800 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

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.
