Courbevoie

What budget should you plan for a shared apartment in Courbevoie?

Choosing to rent a shared apartment in Courbevoie instead of Paris has one major advantage: it can save you a significant amount on rent. And that’s not all! The city is made up of several neighborhoods, each with its own charm. Here are our favorites:

Le Cœur de Ville – The City Center

The central neighborhood of Courbevoie is popular with young professionals and students who want to live in a vibrant, village-like atmosphere. Here, you’ll have every convenience at your doorstep: RER A, tramway T2, and metro line 1. The apartments typically offer modern layouts with fully equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi, and sometimes elevators depending on the building. If you’re looking to share an apartment in this area, plan for a higher budget. Furnished rooms without private bathrooms generally range from €870 to €1,000 per month, including utilities, depending on the room size and type of apartment.

Le Faubourg de l’Arche

The name probably rings a bell. Developed in the late 1990s, this mixed-use neighborhood blends housing, shops, offices, and green spaces. This is where you’ll find the economic heart of the Paris region: La Défense. If you’re looking for a shared room close to public transportation, your school, or your workplace, this is the place to be. Most furnished rooms in shared apartments here are listed between €850 and €930 per month.

Gambetta

Connecting the “Cœur de Ville” and “Faubourg de l’Arche” neighborhoods, Gambetta is a perfectly balanced area. Modern and vibrant with a lively commercial feel, it still retains a peaceful atmosphere with its gardens and views of the Seine. Shared housing options here are more affordable. A furnished room in a shared apartment or a homestay will cost you between €850 and €950 per month, depending on the room size and amenities offered (elevator, parking, balcony).

Why choose shared living in Courbevoie?

Whether you opt for traditional flat-sharing or a coliving arrangement, living in Courbevoie is a smart move. Bordering Paris, you can walk to the towers of La Défense in under 10 minutes — or even faster by bike! The RER A and Transilien L lines will get you straight to central Paris in no time, not to mention metro line 1 and tramway T2.

Courbevoie is a particularly pleasant city for living with roommates. Thanks to its local shops and shopping center, you won’t have to go far to do your grocery shopping, grab a meal, or pick up the latest clothes or home decor you’ve had your eye on. Westfield Les 4 Temps has it all.

And don’t think that just because it’s so close to Paris, there’s nothing to discover in Courbevoie itself. Near Bécon Park, the Pavillon des Indes is a remarkable remnant of the 1878 World’s Fair. Now beautifully restored and open to the public, it’s been transformed into a museum — a warm, cultural spot to enjoy with your roommates. As for the environment, the city has major redevelopment projects planned, including Bécon Park, the Fauvelles swimming pool, and the Trois-Sens garden.

How to find the perfect shared apartment in Courbevoie

A city known for its pleasant lifestyle, vibrant energy, and proximity to the capital, Courbevoie is a magnet for students and young professionals looking for a comfortable home close to where they study or work. Thinking about shared housing? Keep these essential steps in mind to find the perfect place — yes, there are rules to follow:

• Define your rental criteria: Maximum monthly budget for rent and additional expenses, minimum size of the apartment and your room, private or shared bathroom, outdoor space, proximity to your school or public transport — by setting your criteria, you’ll be able to kick-start your search more easily. Also consider practical aspects: number of roommates, whether pets are allowed, smoking or non-smoking, parking availability, presence of an elevator, and whether internet is included.
• Prepare a solid rental application: ID, payslips, employment contract or proof of enrollment, complete information about your guarantor — it’s essential to have your tenant profile ready before replying to any ads. Already renting somewhere? Provide your current lease and a certificate of home insurance to your future landlord. It shows that you’re serious and reliable, reducing the risk of unpleasant surprises.
• Start your apartment search: You’ve defined your non-negotiable criteria. Your application is ready. Now you can start responding to shared housing ads. Make sure to specify your desired move-in dates so the listings you see only include rooms available when you need them. To avoid the back-to-school rush, start your search in late June or early July. That’s when apartments become available and the new rental cycle begins, giving you a better chance of finding the perfect room.
• Schedule apartment viewings: Found a shared room in Courbevoie? Contact the landlord right away! You don’t want someone else to snatch it up. Scheduling visits will let you check whether the photos in the listing match reality. Take the opportunity to ask the landlord all your questions. At Colivys, you can book your room directly on our website. Each listing page features an interactive map showing the exact location of our apartments in the chosen city or region.
