How do I find a place to live in Poland?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Poland is to use online resources such as websites and classifieds. Websites such as Gumtree, OLX, and Otodom are popular in Poland and offer a wide range of rental properties. Additionally, you can search for rental properties on social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.
