Blízkost škol: Jak ovlivňuje cenu bytu a výběr domu v ČR

When you’re looking for a home, especially if you have kids or plan to have them, blízkost škol, vzdálenost domova od základní nebo mateřské školy. Also known as přístupnost vzdělávacích zařízení, it is one of the top reasons families choose where to live — not just in Brno or Prague, but across the whole Czech Republic. A home five minutes from a good school isn’t just convenient — it’s worth more, sells faster, and gives you back time you’d otherwise spend driving.

People don’t just buy homes for square meters or modern kitchens. They buy them for peace of mind. A school within walking distance means no morning rush, no late pickups, no weather-related stress. Parents choose neighborhoods where they can send their child to school on foot — and that demand pushes prices up. Studies from the Czech Statistical Office show that properties within 800 meters of a rated primary school sell for 7–12% more than similar ones farther away. It’s not magic. It’s simple math: convenience = value.

But it’s not just about the school building. Look at the whole picture: Are there sidewalks? Is the route safe? Is there a playground nearby? Does the school have good reviews? A school with high ratings and a strong reputation can turn an ordinary street into a premium address. And if the school is part of a larger educational cluster — with a kindergarten, gym, and after-school program — the effect multiplies. You’re not just buying a house. You’re buying a lifestyle that saves time, reduces stress, and gives your child a better start.

Some buyers overlook this and end up in places that look cheap on paper — only to realize later they’re paying in fuel, time, and exhaustion. A 15-minute drive to school adds up to over 100 hours a year. That’s more than four full workdays. For working parents, that’s not a small thing. The best deals aren’t always the cheapest ones — they’re the ones that make your daily life easier.

And it’s not just for families with young kids. Even if you don’t have children now, buying near a good school can be a smart long-term move. Rental demand is higher in these areas. Buyers looking to move up or down the family ladder always check school zones first. That means your property holds its value better, even if your kids grow up and leave home.
