How do I find a place to live in Chiang Mai?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"Our friends are here and it is the perfect little soi. Not to quiet, not to noisy. The house was just perfect for us. It is in the city of Chiang Mai and close to everything. But, the pollution is getting bad. We may have to move up on the mountain," remarked another expat in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Chiang Mai is to search online for rental listings. There are many websites that offer listings for apartments, condos, and houses in the city. Additionally, you can look for classified ads in local newspapers and magazines. You can also ask friends and family who have lived in Chiang Mai for recommendations. Finally, you can visit the city and look for “For Rent” signs in the windows of buildings," said a member in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
