This distinction highlights factors that are also important for those planning to buy an apartment: the quality of the built environment, the range of housing options, and the surroundings in which residents will live. What lies behind this high rating, and what should you look for when choosing a new apartment in Gliwice?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gliwice ranks second in Poland for housing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this year\u2019s ranking, Gliwice placed second only to Sopot in the housing category. The report\u2019s authors evaluated this area based on ten indicators, taking into account factors such as the size of the housing stock, the number of municipal and social housing units (TBS), expenditure on housing and renovations, vacancy rates, and access to bathrooms and sewage systems. The report commended the increase in the number of housing units in Gliwice, the improvement of their technical condition, and the city's commitment to spatial order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/en\/apartments\/area-parkii\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" data-id=\"23136\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/795253787_1836415298387899_398331803629088557_n-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"Mieszkania blisko szko\u0142y Gliwice\" class=\"wp-image-23136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/795253787_1836415298387899_398331803629088557_n-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/795253787_1836415298387899_398331803629088557_n-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/795253787_1836415298387899_398331803629088557_n-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/795253787_1836415298387899_398331803629088557_n.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/en\/apartments\/area-parkii\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/mieszkania\/osiedle-area-parkii\/\">Osiedle Area Park II housing estate on G\u00f3rna Street in Gliwice<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Healthy Cities Index covers 66 Polish cities with county status. Prepared by the LUX MED Group in collaboration with the academic community, it analyzes eight areas affecting living conditions\u2014ranging from health and education to the environment, urban space, and infrastructure. Housing is one of the elements included in this assessment.\n\nIn this year\u2019s ranking, Gliwice secured 22nd place overall, competing against 57 cities with populations of up to 300,000 inhabitants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/zdrowemiasta.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Indeks-Zdrowych-Miast-2026.pdf\">View the full Healthy Cities Index 2026 report>>><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Five years of change in Gliwice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fifth, anniversary edition of the study made it possible to compare the cities' results from the 2022\u20132026 period. Gliwice improved its standing in four of the seven comparable areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gliwice_centrum_Nowa-inwestycja-w-centrum-Gliwic-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Nowa inwestycja w centrum Gliwic - Activ Investment blog\" class=\"wp-image-22420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gliwice_centrum_Nowa-inwestycja-w-centrum-Gliwic-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gliwice_centrum_Nowa-inwestycja-w-centrum-Gliwic-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gliwice_centrum_Nowa-inwestycja-w-centrum-Gliwic-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gliwice_centrum_Nowa-inwestycja-w-centrum-Gliwic.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most significant improvement was recorded in the health category, where the city rose from 52nd to 16th place. This ranking was based on per-capita spending on health-promoting initiatives and the number of projects implemented. Meanwhile, in the \"Population and Generations\" category, the city moved up from 44th to 25th place.\n\nThis is a positive signal for those considering buying an apartment in Gliwice, as the city is improving its performance in areas that matter for everyday life. When choosing a home, it is worth looking beyond just floor area and layout; one should also consider the surroundings and the development trajectory of the city where one plans to build a future. The Area Park II development in Gliwice is an option for those seeking a new apartment in a quieter part of the city, featuring planned green spaces and private outdoor areas for relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New apartments in Gliwice - the surroundings matter too<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Housing development relies on the efforts of various local market players. Local authorities, property managers, and private developers address a range of needs\u2014from the availability of rental housing to the opportunity to purchase a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For someone looking for an apartment in Gliwice, the ranking results can serve as a useful starting point for getting to know the city better. However, choosing a specific address requires considering one's daily needs. What will the commute to work look like? Does the apartment layout allow for a comfortable children's room or workspace? Is there space for relaxation in the surrounding area?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/en\/apartments\/area-parkii\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"737\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mieszkania-z-tarasem-Gliwice-Osiedle-Area-Park-II-1-1024x737.jpg\" alt=\"Mieszkania z tarasem do 16 m\u00b2 - Osiedle Area Park II w Gliwicach\" class=\"wp-image-23328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mieszkania-z-tarasem-Gliwice-Osiedle-Area-Park-II-1-1024x737.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mieszkania-z-tarasem-Gliwice-Osiedle-Area-Park-II-1-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mieszkania-z-tarasem-Gliwice-Osiedle-Area-Park-II-1-767x552.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mieszkania-z-tarasem-Gliwice-Osiedle-Area-Park-II-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/en\/apartments\/area-parkii\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/mieszkania\/osiedle-area-parkii\/\">Apartments with terraces of up to 16 m\u00b2 - Area Park II Estate in Gliwice<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, when comparing residential developments in Gliwice, it is worth evaluating both the apartments themselves and the layout of the estate. Greenery, communal areas, and solutions affecting building maintenance costs remain significant long after the keys are handed over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Osiedle Area Park II in Gliwice - apartments on G\u00f3rna Street<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the new residential developments in Gliwice is Osiedle Area Park II, a project by Activ Investment located on G\u00f3rna Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The development comprises four buildings and 136 apartments ranging in size from approximately 30 to 64 m\u00b2. Plans include both compact units for singles and couples and apartments with more rooms for families. The project features balconies, terraces, and private gardens.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"737\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-nowe-mieszkania-Gliwice-1-1024x737.jpg\" alt=\"Osiedle Area Park II nowe mieszkania Gliwice\" class=\"wp-image-23344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-nowe-mieszkania-Gliwice-1-1024x737.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-nowe-mieszkania-Gliwice-1-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-nowe-mieszkania-Gliwice-1-767x552.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-nowe-mieszkania-Gliwice-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/en\/apartments\/area-parkii\/\">Discover the offer at Osiedle Area Park II - new apartments in Gliwice.<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing an apartment, it is worth comparing not only the floor area but also the room proportions, exposure, and floor level. A well-designed layout makes furnishing the interior easier, while suitable outdoor space can become a spot for morning coffee, houseplants, or unwinding after work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Greenery and Photovoltaics at the Area Park II Housing Estate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Area Park II development plan includes the planting of 163 trees and over 400 m\u00b2 of shrubs and ornamental plants. The greenery is designed to create a shared setting for the buildings and complement the private garden areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project also incorporates 10 kW photovoltaic installations on each building to help power common areas. Reducing reliance on grid electricity can lead to lower maintenance costs. The development is further complemented by elevators and electric vehicle charging stations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" data-id=\"23375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"Osiedle Area Park II budowa pazdziernik 2026\" class=\"wp-image-23375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026-1536x1086.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-2026.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" data-id=\"23371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1-1024x724.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1-768x543.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1-1536x1086.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.activ-investment.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Osiedle-Area-Park-II-budowa-pazdziernik-1.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Construction status as of October 2026 - Area Park II Estate<\/em><br><br>For prospective residents, these are key factors to consider when comparing new housing developments in Gliwice - alongside price, location, and the functionality of the specific apartment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Looking for an apartment in Gliwice?
