    District Character

    Śródmieście

    The heart of the city with Piotrkowska street, Łódź Fabryczna station and renovated tenements. Best transport and services, but the noisiest and least green.

    Bałuty

    The most populated district. Manufaktura, Radogoszcz and Teofilów are worlds apart – from a post-industrial shopping complex to large prefab estates.

    Polesie

    The western part with Zdrowie park, the zoo and the Fala aquapark. A good choice for families who want greenery near the centre.

    Górna

    Southern Łódź: Chojny, Dąbrowa and Górniak. Quiet residential estates, lots of low-rise housing and affordable prices.

    Widzew

    The largest district by area in the east – Olechów, Janów and Nowosolna. Plenty of new developments and green space, but a longer commute downtown.
