Cozy village-like atmosphere
Perusmäki is known to be a very peaceful and safe neighborhood where residents all know each other and children bicycle around in flocks. Local activity is centered around Puimalan lato, a charming ochre-red barn, where you may attend sausage barbecues or group exercise classes or maybe see an exhibition from a local artist. Or you may swing by to buy freshly picked apples from local children, or to pick up thai food, pizza or cinnamon rolls from food trucks that occasionally stop by.


The building stock of Perusmäki is entirely consisted of small residential buildings with no high-rise buildings at all. Despite this the price of real estate in Perusmäki is significantly below the general capital area level.
