They've escaped Japan and have come to Tampere of all places, a city in Finland known to be inhabited by young celebration going college children, old blueberry pie baking grandmas and mustamakkara.

That should give you an idea of the real estate prices here.

65 square meter apartment (700 square feet) is 170k EUR (266k USD).
