About 3,893 homes here are privately let. The deepest rental market is 2 rooms · 1 bed. No organisation publishes how long a home takes to rent in Romania, so we show depth rather than a made-up waiting time.

Romanian listings count rooms, not bedrooms — a “2 camere” home is a living room plus one bedroom. Two things here are measured for THIS town: its average room count and its vacancy rate. The split by size is estimated from that average, and the “% let” figures are a single national urban rate applied to every town — the census does not publish either locally.
