Cooperative housing in St. Gallen
St. Gallen is the centre of eastern Switzerland. There are cooperative apartments in many neighbourhoods, from St. Fiden and Neudorf in the east to Bruggen and Winkeln in the west.
Rents are clearly lower than in Zurich, but affordable cooperative apartments are still in demand. Because many smaller cooperatives only advertise on their own website, a search that combines all sources pays off.
