Market Review — Rijeka
Rijeka is Croatia's third-largest city and a European Capital of Culture (2020). The port city offers significantly lower prices than coastal resort towns while providing year-round rental demand from its university and maritime economy. Korzo, Trsat, and Kantrida are emerging investment areas. Rijeka's improving infrastructure and proximity to Istrian beaches add growth potential.
