Cost of owning in Olsztyn
What GUS reports about condo fees, heating, and social housing — not private-market rent.
When you buy a flat in Poland, ongoing costs include czynsz (condo management fees), heating, and repairs. GUS collects these from housing associations and municipalities — they reflect official averages, not your specific building.
