Explore your living choices in the South of France

Perpignan is the only city in our department. It's the cultural and commercial centre of the department and therefore has a lot more going on than anywhere else, especially out of season. It is also the transport hub having a major train station with fast (TGV) trains to other French cities and Barcelona. The central bus station, next to the train station, is where you catch buses to the other areas of the department, as well as a shuttle to the airport. 

It is divided into five quartiers each of which contains several residential districts. The districts vary a lot in what they have to offer so it's important to research them before deciding where to live in Perpignan itself. 

The historical centre is known as Saint-Jean and contains most of the major sights as well as the main pedestrianised shopping area. Housing in this district is limited mainly to apartments above shops or along the more residential area along Rue Jean d'Arc, although large town houses can also be found. 

We have added descriptions for the main city districts. Select "Perpignan" as the Area to see the list of "towns" within it.
