Hi. For a cheap nation, rentals in Albania are insane. I can's pay a year or two of income for one month of rent. Where do people live? Thank you.

Hi. All the apartment rental prices I have seen were very reasonable. I'm excluding vacation options like Airbnb, where just about anything goes, it seems. (I think I recently saw a place in Albania for over 3,000 USD per month). Perhaps you were referring to houses?

There are no houses in Albania. Only apartments. And all the ones I've seen are several years' income for 1 month's rent. Surely there is some way to survive in Albania? They say it is a cheap country, but the US, UK, Germany, and so on are way cheaper.

I think we are going to live in a bunker or find an abandoned building or something. They say there is zero homelessness in Albania. But they also say that 50% of the population has no home. lol Seems to be a lot of misinformation.

Same with crime. They say there is zero crime in Albania. But at the same time, TWICE the gun violence of America and it is the origin nation of 95% of human trafficking in Europe. All girls drop out of school at 15 for fear of abduction. Huge gun trade. And drugs are so bad, some entire cites are controlled, literally, 100% by druglords.

But no crime.

Is there anyone or anyplace to get real info on Albania?
