Living in Annemasse when you work in Geneva →

Yes: to work in Geneva while living on the French side you need a G permit (cross-border permit). Your Swiss employer applies for it once your contract is signed; Annemasse Agglo is within the eligible border zone. Conditions and processing times are those of the Geneva authorities (OCPM, ge.ch).

A 12-month renewable furnished lease, and you can leave whenever you want with 1 month's notice. It suits cross-border workers settling in for good as well as people on a probation period in Geneva. The lease follows French law (loi Alur), with a deposit of 2 months' rent excluding charges, payable in 1, 2 or 3 instalments depending on your application, and no agency fee.

In a classic flatshare you usually manage the bills (electricity, water, internet), the cleaning and the upkeep yourself, and furnish your room. Our coliving in Annemasse includes everything in one rent: bills, fibre, cleaning 3 times a week, designer furniture, access to the premium spaces (pool, gym, sauna), community events. The price per square metre stays in line with a high-end classic flatshare in Annemasse, with no nasty surprises.

Fill in the form on our application page. We call you back within 48 h for a chat (motivation, work context, availability). If it's a good fit, we organise a visit of the house that matches your profile (La Villa in Ville-la-Grand, Le Loft in Ambilly, Le Lodge in Annemasse Romagny). Move-in can then happen within 72 h of your first contact, if a room is available.

Yes, as in any central town of a metropolitan area: it depends on the neighbourhood and the hour, not on the town.

More than 100 residents have lived there since 2021, many of them newcomers who didn't know the area. Our article on Annemasse's neighbourhoods says, block by block, where we would live and where we wouldn't.

Both, depending on the word you use: you live in a flatshare, in a house shared with 7 to 12 flatmates, but everything is already organised the way a coliving is. A furnished room of your own, a furnished lease in your name, one rent that includes bills, fibre, cleaning of the common areas 3 times a week, pool, sauna, gym and events; 29 rooms in 3 houses, run directly by the founders, no agency. What you don't have to do: find flatmates, split bills, buy furniture.
