Concise answers derived from the same current data and formulas as ZuriMap’s 34 quartier guides. Each answer states whether its evidence is official, summarized, estimated or modelled.
ZuriMap offers an estimated summer comfort score from 0–100 for matched Zürich addresses where source data is available. Higher means less modeled overheating in a fixed August 2023 hot-weather test without active cooling. The beta model combines outdoor climate, building and façade data with apartment scenarios. Floor, bedroom direction and external blinds refine it. The tested range is not a confidence interval, and the score is not measured indoor temperature or calibrated performance. A neighborhood average cannot rate an individual apartment.
Understand the summer comfort score and check an address →Across ZuriMap’s 34 quartier comparison values, existing-stock net rent runs from CHF 1'528 to CHF 2'813 per month, with a median of CHF 1'980. These are median net rents for a 3-room apartment from the City of Zurich’s Mietpreiserhebung 2024; ancillary costs are excluded, and the values are not current advertised asking rents.
Compare all quartier rents →The five lowest 3-room comparison rents are Hirzenbach (CHF 1'528), Saatlen (CHF 1'528), Schwamendingen-Mitte (CHF 1'528), Leimbach (CHF 1'589) and Affoltern (CHF 1'655). They are Mietpreiserhebung 2024 existing-stock medians, so a newly advertised apartment may cost materially more.
See the complete affordability ranking →The current family ranking puts Fluntern first, followed by Friesenberg and Witikon. It uses an equal-weight ZuriMap preference model combining standardized schools, green space and safety while rewarding lower noise; it is not an official family rating.
See the family formula and ranking →The highest current ZuriMap safety values are Fluntern (9.5/10), Witikon (9.5/10) and Friesenberg (9/10). Each is a legacy editorial area score with unverified source provenance, not a police rating or an address-level prediction.
See the safety ranking →The lowest current quartier summaries are Witikon (40 dB), Fluntern (42 dB) and Friesenberg (42 dB). These are legacy area estimates with unverified source provenance; façade, floor and street can make an individual home quieter or louder.
See the road-noise ranking →The shortest current values are City (3 min), Hochschulen (4 min) and Lindenhof (4 min). They are estimated public-transport trips from representative quartier locations, not live or address-specific routing.
See the commute ranking →The current expat-oriented ranking puts City first, followed by Langstrasse and Rathaus. It is an equal-weight ZuriMap preference model combining standardized international-resident share and restaurant density while rewarding a shorter commute; it is not an official rating.
See the international-resident ranking →ZuriMap combines City of Zurich statistics and geodata with derived estimates and modelled comparison scores. Sources include the Mietpreiserhebung 2024, road-noise geodata, district-level police statistics, air-quality measurements, population data and mapped services; every layer has its own measurement period and limitations.
