Brief Overview
With a total area of almost 79,000 square kilometres, the Czech Republic is a medium-sized European country. Its size is comparable to Austria and Ireland and would fit inside France seven times. The Czech Republic makes up 2% of the European Union. The country comprises three historical lands – Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia. Bohemia is the largest, the area of Moravia is half the size of Bohemia, and the smallest land, Silesia, has an area of approximately 4,500 square kilometres.
The list of the largest cities of the Czech Republic opens with the capital city of Prague, which is followed by Plzeň, Brno, Liberec and Ostrava.
Prague’s first inhabitants arrived during the early Stone Age. The hills over the Vltava were first settled by members of an unknown tribe. Their descendants gradually settled the entire area around the Vltava meander, the shape of which – that of the letter P – symbolized the settlement’s future name. The foundation of Prague Castle, the building of the Christian Church of the Virgin Mary at its centre, and the promotion of the Castle as the chief seat of the Přemyslid dynasty gave the Prague settlements a new mission. Prague Castle became the heart of the Czech Principality; the rise of the Přemyslid princes to power, along with an advantageous position at a crossroads of trading paths over the river, made Prague the most important place in the country.
Prague became a city at the end of the 12th century. The Old Town of Prague came into existence in 1220 and joined with the Lesser Town at the end of the 13th century. At the beginning of the 14th century, another Prague town appeared: Hradčany (the Castle Quarter).
A period of great prosperity and growth came with the rule of Charles IV (1346-78), who made Prague the greatest centre of the European empire. After Rome, it was the second Christian metropolis in Europe. Charles IV built the stone Chares Bridge (1357), founded Charles University (1348) and, during the same year, established Prague’s New Town. After his death, his son Wenceslas IV took over and Prague becomes one of the most beautiful and splendid towns in the whole world, fully deserving of its epithet, “Rome of the North.” Its appearance did not change for another 200 years.
After an independent Czechoslovak state was established in autumn 1918, there were significant differences between the regions. Industry started to develop rapidly in Bohemia, manual work was replaced by machine production and new technologies. Probably the most important representative of this time was Tomáš Baťa, who managed to provide employment for tens of thousands of labourers. The Czechoslovak Republic’s economy underwent several waves of expansion and the textile, glass and shoe industries were among the most advanced in the world. The Czechoslovak armaments industry had no competition in Europe. The electricity and power industries began to develop along with the completion of electrification of the Czechoslovak Republic. In 1928 there were only 38,000 unemployed in the Czechoslovak Republic, which was not even 1% of the employable inhabitants.
After the Second World War the Czechoslovak economy was in excellent condition. Apart from several air strikes on the Pilsen Škoda factory it remained practically unaffected by the war. We had the capacity, technology and experts. Czechoslovakia was however forced to refuse the Marshall Plan, and Czechoslovak industry started to focus on the East and the era of socialist planning and five-year plans began. In spite of this, the term Bohemia Crystal was well-known throughout the world. The glass industry and the textile and chemicals industries remained first-class throughout the communist regime.
The “Velvet Revolution” took place in Czechoslovakia in November 1989. The leadership of the Communist party came to an end and Czechoslovakia set out in the direction of democracy and capitalism. Coupon privatisation took place at the beginning of the nineteen-nineties. This basically meant that every citizen in Czechoslovakia had the opportunity to purchase shares in any existing state company. 77% of all citizens of the Czechoslovak Republic took part in the first wave in 1992 and the privatised assets amounted to 679 billion crowns. This meant that practically the whole of industry fell into the hands of either minor shareholders or various funds. Many companies did not survive the subsequent 20 years and, for instance, the textile industry ceased completely to exist in the Czech Republic, with several exceptions.
At present a little over 3% of the inhabitants work in agriculture, 38% of people work in industry and most people are employed in services, approximately 59%. Apart from the power industry no other important company has remained in Czech hands. In spite of this the automotive industry, for example, is among the most developed in Europe.
The Czech Republic is investing more and more into the development of technologies. The world patent for the manufacture of nano-fibres, acquired by the Technical University in Liberec, is one example of this investment.
Culture
Situated at the crossroads of central Europe, the Czech Republic enjoys a prosperous and stable community that reveals a broad spectrum of cultural, religious and political influences. These influences have created a rich culture that has contributed to every aspect of modern day Czech life. One of the most underlying and inherent features of the Czech culture is their polite and humble approach to life. Czechs are both formal and indirect in their communication.
The family unit is the focal point of the Czech social structure and as such, family ties are much closer and more deeply rooted than in other countries. Despite being a hardworking nation, a Czech’s highest priority is essentially an obligation to the family.
Overall, the Czech Republic has a low tolerance for unstructured situations and as a result, Czechs are more likely to adhere to rules and regulations. In business situation this often means a more forward thinking and practical approach is taken.
Rental Market
In general, there is a good offer of properties in Prague and, depending on the specific requirements, it is usually possible to find between 6 and 12 properties that are available at any given time that could be of interest. In other cities in the Czech Republic, the rental housing market is less developed and it can be quite challenging to find suitable accommodation.
Rent prices in Prague are at an “international level”, in the Mercer’s 2014 Cost of Living overview, Prague takes the 92nd place (from 73rd place in 2013), ranking it among cities like Stuttgart and Washington. Rent prices in Prague are at an “international level”, in the Mercer’s 2011 Cost of Living overview, Prague takes the 47th place (same as in 2010), ranking it among cities like Vienna, Stockholm, Helsinki and Amsterdam. Rent differs depending on the location (residential areas with many expatriates versus less popular areas but with possibility to find the same quality property for less money), quality of materials used, age, style, seasonal market fluctuations and finally also expectations of individual landlords. The real estate market in Prague is maturing but there is still a lack of common standards.
Houses in Prague are, in most cases offered unfurnished with rent payable in either in Czech Crowns or Euros. The most significant impact on the asking rent, apart from the location, is the number of bedrooms and overall size of the property. Rent is generally mentioned excluding utilities, some owners will accept to include an agreed upon amount in the rent for utility payments, but if the actual consumption is higher/lower than this amount, the balance will have to be settled. The costs for utilities (excluding telephone and Internet) for a house of about 200 sqm varies between €200,- and €300, mostly depending on the number of persons occupying the property.
The market is divided into properties available for long-term lease (more than a year) and short-term lease (less than a year), because the operational costs of short-term leases are significantly higher (e.g. real estate fees) for the owners, the rent for short term leases are typically 20 – 40 % higher than long term leases. It is usually possible to conclude a lease agreement for a longer period of time, and include a so-called diplomatic clause which allows for the termination of the lease with a period of notice of three months in case the person is relocated. A security deposit in the amount of one month’s rent (for furnished properties two months’ rent) is common and rent payments are usually required monthly or quarterly in advance.
Standard Tenancy: Minimum 12 months for long term leases.
Security Deposit: Yes, usually equivalent to 1 – 2 months rent
Holding Deposit: In most case not required to secure a property while negotiating the
lease and not advised.
Real Estate Commission: Commission is paid by the landlord and the tenant to the letting agent
Utilities: Tenants responsibility, not included within rent.
Healthcare
Most expatriates choose to get medical care through one of the international medical centres. The main reason for using an International medical centre is the language barrier as regular doctors seldom are able/willing to provide medical care in a foreign language.
The international medical centres can provide the first medical/dental care (e.g. general practitioner/dentist) but also employ specialist who can provide specific care. In case hospitalisation is required the medical centres have arrangements with one of the major Czech hospitals.
All international medical centres provide the possibility of direct billing to all major insurance companies. Further details can be found on the websites of following international medical centres below.
Schools
The choice for one of the international schools in Prague is often one of the most important decisions to be made and it affects many of the other items related to the relocation such as Home Search. In Prague, there is range of international schools to choose from. Other cities in the Czech Republic with international schools include Brno, Olomouc and Ostrava, but the offer is not really comparable to Prague.
A wealth of information can be found on the following websites of the major the international schools below.
