About Laajasalo

Laajasalo is a green, seaside district with forests and outdoor areas close by, and it feels more like a residential island community than an urban core. Public transport connections are fairly limited, so trips to central Helsinki are longer, but the area has a mix of owner-occupied and rental housing and attracts a fairly even, settled population rather than a strongly student- or young-adult-heavy crowd.
