Yeah, from my (admittedly brief) research into apartment listings it does seem rather daunting. I would like to cut down on the amount of travel I need to do every morning, to and from work. But at the same time I am pretty used to it already I guess.
I will look into those places and that website, thank you very much!
* I wouldn't bother with France unless you're willing to drive and waste a lot of time in traffic jams. Annemasse is the exception, but it's pretty sketchy imho.
* On the other hand, living in the countryside can be a good option. Public transportation works better than if you cross the border, and biking to work can be reasonably doable.
* Living a bit further in Vaud, near a train station, is a good option too.
* Most apartments belong to estate companies (régies immobilières), not individual landlords. Contacting them directly is definitely the way to go.
