"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Basel is to use online resources such as websites like Immoscout24, Homegate, and Comparis. These websites allow you to search for apartments and houses for rent in Basel and the surrounding area. Additionally, you can also search for rental properties on the websites of local real estate agents. Additionally, you can also look for rental properties in local newspapers and magazines. Finally, you can also ask friends and family who live in Basel for recommendations," wrote a member who made the move to Basel, Switzerland.
