About Suomenlinna

Suomenlinna is an island neighborhood with limited transit connections, so getting around relies on ferry access rather than fast links to the rest of Helsinki. It is very green, with water all around, and the housing is dominated by rentals; the resident base is relatively mixed but with fewer young adults than many inner-city areas. Its most notable trait is its historic fortress setting, which gives it a distinctly quiet and isolated feel.
