01Neighbourhoods
Nicosia spreads out — your choice depends on whether you work in the centre or in the tech parks.
- Old Town within the walls — character, restaurants, smaller homes
- Engomi & Strovolos — family-friendly, embassies, schools
- Aglantzia & Latsia — affordable, near University of Cyprus
- Lakatamia & Tseri — newer houses, suburban feel
- Egkomi tech corridor — close to most modern offices
02Summer heat is real
Nicosia is 5–8°C hotter than the coast in summer. Air-conditioning is non-negotiable; pick an apartment with proper A/C and good insulation.
03Schools
The English School, American Academy Nicosia, Pascal and Falcon are the main international options. The English School has the longest waiting list — apply 12+ months ahead.
04Move logistics
We do Nicosia moves regularly from Paphos, Limassol and Larnaca. Highway transit is fast — most cross-island moves are completed same-day.
Key takeaway
Pick by commute, pick A/C carefully, apply to schools early. Nicosia rewards planning.
