Rent examples are individual advertised asking prices in MAD per month. They cover different home sizes and furnishing, so they are not neighborhood averages or comparable budget bands. Availability is unconfirmed. Where there is no usable example, no rent estimate is shown.
Housing groups and practical notes are editorial search aids, not measured neighborhood ratings. Check the exact address, route and building. Open each card for dated evidence and source limitations.
10 areas in Casablanca.
No areas match this combination. Choose another housing type or select All.
An apartment search area around the Twin Center and adjoining shopping streets. Compare the precise block, floor and building condition instead of treating all Maarif addresses as equivalent.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Try the route to groceries and work on foot; busy crossings and pavement obstructions matter more than a district score.
Transport
Compare your address with the official tram and busway map; the walk to a stop varies.
Before renting
Check street noise with windows open, lift access and whether parking is included.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 15,000 MAD/month
3-bedroom apartment, 170 m²; furnishing not specified
Single large-apartment example. Confirm furnishing, charges and residential lease terms.
Cantarel listing Ref4173a ↗Checked 2026-09-27. Individual advertised monthly rent; furnishing and additional charges not stated clearly.
Gauthier
Apartments
centralcafés
A central apartment neighborhood with shops, cafés and restaurants. Building age and the street-facing side can make two nearby flats very different places to live.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Useful for errands on foot; test crossings and the walk to the services you actually use.
Transport
Check the official map from the exact address; do not assume a tram stop is at the door.
Before renting
Visit in the evening to assess restaurant noise and check ventilation and lift maintenance.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 8,500 MAD/month
Furnished 1-bedroom studio; area needs confirmation
The advert gives inconsistent floor areas. Price is one asking example; confirm size and charges.
Cantarel listing Ref4648a ↗Checked 2026-09-27. Individual advertised monthly rent. Area conflicts (45 and 40 m²), so no area is reproduced.
Anfa
Apartments & Villas
villasaddress matters
Anfa is used for a residential area and a much wider administrative district. Ask for the map pin: an Anfa address is not automatically in Casa Anfa, the former airport redevelopment.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Check the distance between the home, shops and your daily destinations; a residential street may have few services.
Transport
Check the address against the official network rather than using the broad Anfa label.
Before renting
Distinguish a whole villa from a floor or apartment in a villa; clarify maintenance responsibilities.
Rent evidence
No usable dated rent example is published for this area. Compare current offers for the same housing type, size, furnishing and lease length before setting a budget.

Ain Diab / Corniche
Apartments & Villas
coastmixed housing
The coastal search area includes apartments, villas and tourist accommodation. AnfaPlace is on this corniche; a seafront listing does not by itself describe access to everyday services.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
A promenade walk and a grocery walk are different tests. Check the actual route from the residence.
Transport
T2 serves Ain Diab Plage. Measure the onward walk; it does not cover every coastal residence.
Before renting
Check road and venue noise, sea exposure, parking and the length of lease offered.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 8,000 MAD/month
Furnished 1-bedroom studio, 54 m², on a villa upper floor
Not a whole-villa rent. Confirm access, parking and charges directly; advert amenities are not independently checked.
Cantarel listing Ref4644a ↗Checked 2026-09-27. Individual advertised monthly rent for a studio on the upper floor of a villa, not a whole villa.
Racine
Apartments
centralapartments
A central apartment search area with services and commercial streets. Compare equivalent flat sizes, furnishing and building condition when choosing between Racine and nearby districts.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Try the local shopping routes and crossings from each shortlisted building.
Transport
Check the official tram and busway map for your specific address and destination.
Before renting
Check floor area against the plan and visit, especially where an advert counts terraces or gives conflicting totals.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 10,000 MAD/month
Unfurnished 2-bedroom apartment with an additional small room
Area is inconsistent in the advert (200 versus 100 m²) and is omitted. Confirm layout, area and charges.
Cantarel listing Ref4650a ↗Checked 2026-09-27. Individual advertised monthly rent. Area conflicts (200 and 100 m²), so no area is reproduced.
Bourgogne
Apartments
residentialaddress matters
Listings use Bourgogne Est, Bourgogne Ouest and nearby boundary labels. Treat these as starting points for an address search, not a promise of uniformly quiet streets or a particular rent level.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Check the route to shops and the coast yourself; the starting block changes both.
Transport
Use the official network map from the property pin, not the listing heading alone.
Before renting
Check the precise location, noise, damp and building upkeep. Ask which charges the quote includes.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 8,000 MAD/month
Furnished 1-bedroom apartment with terrace, Bourgogne/Gauthier boundary
One boundary-area example. Conflicting floor-area totals are omitted; confirm usable space and charges.
Cantarel listing Ref4652a ↗Checked 2026-09-27. Individual advertised monthly rent at the Bourgogne/Gauthier boundary. Conflicting area totals omitted.
Ain Sebaa
Apartments
east Casablancatram
Keep Ain Sebaa separate from Sidi Bernoussi when searching. The useful comparison is the home-to-work route and nearby services, not a blanket description of Casablanca’s eastern districts.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Test the route across major roads and between the home, shops and transit.
Transport
The official map shows T1 service in Ain Sebaa. Check the closest useful stop for the address.
Before renting
Visit during the working day to assess traffic and nearby activity; check the return commute.
Rent evidence
No usable dated rent example is published for this area. Compare current offers for the same housing type, size, furnishing and lease length before setting a budget.
A separate search area from Ain Sebaa. Choose a precise block and compare the full journey to your destination before judging a listing by its asking rent.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Try the route to local shops and a transit stop, including road crossings.
Transport
T2 reaches Sidi Bernoussi. Check the stop location rather than assuming district-wide walking access.
Before renting
Check bus or tram connections for your schedule and inspect the building entrance and upkeep.
Rent evidence
No usable dated rent example is published for this area. Compare current offers for the same housing type, size, furnishing and lease length before setting a budget.
The former Anfa airport redevelopment contains Casablanca Finance City and residential projects. It is a distinct search area from the older Anfa residential label.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Check completed routes between the residence, shops and park; a development name covers more than one block.
Transport
T1 includes Anfa Park and Place Financière stops. Check the walk from the specific residence.
Before renting
Check nearby works, service charges, parking and what facilities are already open.

Sidi Maarouf
Apartments & Villas
south Casablancacommute planning
An option to compare when your daily destinations are on Casablanca’s southern side. The city identifies its interchange as a key route toward the airport; that does not imply a fixed commute time.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Check whether errands stay within the residential block or require crossing major roads.
Transport
Compare the address with BW1 and its connections on the official map.
Before renting
Test the commute at your actual hours and check road noise, parking and local shops.
Rent evidence
No usable dated rent example is published for this area. Compare current offers for the same housing type, size, furnishing and lease length before setting a budget.
An area of hotels and residential apartments. Compare the specific residence and its surroundings rather than assuming every street is quiet because the district has upscale hotels.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Test routes to groceries as well as restaurants, including shade and road crossings.
Transport
Confirm the current local bus options or taxi route for the exact residence.
Before renting
Ask about building charges and whether nearby venues or short lets affect evening noise.
Rent evidence
Asking-price example: 14,000 MAD/month
Furnished 2-bedroom apartment, 110 m²
Advert offers a long-term let. Additional charges and continued availability need confirmation.
A large historic area, not one uniform neighborhood. Check the exact lane and access gate; a room, a floor and an entire riad are different rental products.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Expect walking for many final approaches. Check steps, surfaces and delivery access rather than assuming all lanes are pedestrian-only.
Transport
Arrange a practical pickup point at an accessible road or gate; not every property has doorstep vehicle access.
Before renting
Inspect damp, daylight, ventilation, stairs and the route for groceries and luggage.

Apartments & Villas
spaceresidences
A broad search area for villas and residential developments. The residence’s precise location matters more than the Palmeraie label when comparing space with access to the city.

On foot
Check whether shops are walkable from the actual entrance; do not assume resort facilities are public neighborhood services.
Transport
Plan road transport and check what is available from the residence, especially for the return journey.

Route de Ouarzazate (corridor)
Apartments & Villas
road corridoraddress matters
A road corridor rather than a compact neighborhood. Record the map pin and distance along the road. Amelkis is listed separately because a named development and a whole corridor should not share one profile.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot
Assess the route to daily services from the entrance, including unpaved sections and road crossings.
Transport
Plan the full road journey and confirm local transport at the specific development.
Before renting
Check access roads, utilities, maintenance costs and the exact lease boundaries.

An additional area to investigate for daily life near the northern university districts. Cadi Ayyad’s directory lists individual campuses and addresses; use the correct faculty rather than a generic university pin.
Routes, rent & sources
On foot

Transport
Confirm the current bus route and stop locally, then test the return trip.
