Is it worth living in Łomianki?

This question often appears on the Facebook forum of Łomianki residents. Although the issue of commuting to Warsaw during rush hours arouses strong emotions and criticism, new investments are still very popular. Houses and apartments on the secondary market also quickly find buyers or tenants. What factors influence the popularity of Łomianki? Why do Warsaw residents leave the capital and decide to live in a smaller city?

A city for everyone.

Łomianki is one of the fastest growing communes near Warsaw. The pace of development surprises long-time residents of the city, who still remember the fields and meadows stretching across the Vistula River. Today, there are modern estates of single-family and multi-family buildings there, which are very popular. In Łomianki, everyone will find something for themselves - from luxurious residences in Dąbrowa to affordable segments and apartments in Łomianki Dolne.

Warsaw just beyond the border.

Łomianki attracts people who are tired of the big city rush, but appreciate the opportunities offered by the capital. Therefore, the proximity to Warsaw is one of Łomianki's greatest advantages. The location right next to the S7 route provides comfortable access to the capital both by car and public transport. However, the arrival time depends on travel hours. During rush hours, many drivers decide to use the "Park and Ride" parking lot in Młociny and change to the metro. Thanks to this, they can avoid the capital's traffic jams and reach their destination faster than by car. Bus travelers can also count on direct access to the metro. Moreover, Łomianki is located in the first ticket zone of Warsaw public transport.
Fortunately for all those who have tied their fate or want to tie it with Łomianki, the construction of a bypass is planned in the next few years. Solving communication problems will increase interest in real estate in Łomianki.

A unique landscape.

The location of Łomianki in the buffer zone of the Kampinos National Park and the Vistula oxbow lake creates a unique landscape.
The Kampinos Forest is one of the largest forest complexes in all of Europe. It delights with the diversity of ecosystems and is a shelter for many animal species, including wild boars, moose, wolves, and hundreds of varieties of birds. Kampinos is an ideal place for lovers of outdoor activities. Numerous, well-marked trails attract walkers, runners, cyclists, but also horse riding enthusiasts. Families with children often choose this place for a Sunday walk or a picnic, which can be organized in a wooden shelter.
The Vistula oxbow lake is a remnant of the former river bed, which was transformed into a picturesque water area. Lake Dziekanowskie and Lake Kiełpińskie are the two largest reservoirs in the oxbow lake, which attract residents of Łomianki and nearby towns both in summer heat and winter frosts. Lake Dziekanowskie boasts a richer infrastructure - it offers a swimming area, a pier, water equipment rental, a snack bar, and in winter a steam sauna, which is perfect for winter swimming enthusiasts. Lake Kiełpińskie is a nature reserve, where the main attraction is the opportunity to contemplate nature.

Education and recreation.

Real estate in Łomianki is very popular among families with children. A safe neighborhood, rich educational offer and recreational and sports infrastructure support the intellectual and physical development of the youngest.

There are numerous institutions in the city, from kindergartens to secondary schools, both public and private.

The city also offers a wide selection of language schools where you can learn foreign languages ​​at various levels of advancement. We can say with a clear conscience that the schools in Łomianki fully meet the educational needs of children of all ages and eliminate the need to travel to Warsaw.
The city provides excellent conditions for developing sports talents. The sporting showcase of Łomianki is the Integration Didactic and Sports Center (ICDS). The facility includes, among others: a sports hall, a swimming pool with a sports and recreational pool, a sauna, a fencing hall and a sports stadium. In winter, an ice rink with skate rentals is built on the ICDS premises. Importantly, admission to the ice rink is free.

Regardless of sports preferences, everyone will find something for themselves in Łomianki - a basketball court, sports fields, horse stables, gyms, gymnasiums and tennis courts. Bicycle paths and the proximity of the Kampinos Forest and Młociński Park also encourage outdoor exercise.

Time for shopping.

Depending on individual needs and shopping preferences, Łomianki residents have many different shops and shops to choose from. People who want to do quick shopping at a good price can go to popular discount stores - Żabka, Biedronka, Netto or Lidl. Consumers who value high quality products as well as maintaining neighborly relations appreciate local shops, often run by their owners who also live in Łomianki. In search of fresh fruit and vegetables straight from farmers, city residents visit the local market. However, people planning larger grocery purchases choose the Auchan hypermarket.
