The lifestyle
Qormi is a working town with heavy traffic on the roads that pass through it and a good deal of light industry and commerce at its edges. The old core is quiet and has real character; much of the rest is ordinary. It floods in parts during heavy rain, which is worth asking about for a ground-floor property. It suits people who want space and low rent within easy reach of everywhere, and not people looking for charm or quiet on the doorstep.
Property in Qormi
Apartments and maisonettes in the newer areas, townhouses and houses of character in the old core. Rents are among the lower ones on the island and space is generous. Older properties range widely in condition. Ground-floor and basement properties deserve a specific question about rain, given the town’s history with it.
Who is this area best for?
Budget-conscious renters
Space at low rents in a central position.
Families
Schools, services and affordable homes.
People wanting character cheaply
Old houses in the core at inland prices.
