Living in Kera – Where Sustainability Meets Services

Espoo’s Kera is a transforming residential area in a central location. Once known for logistics and industrial activity, Kera is now undergoing a major change into a modern, sustainable, and community-oriented urban environment.

The former warehouse area is making way for a carefully planned urban structure where excellent transport connections, green spaces, and modern sustainability come together. The new Kera will offer homes for about 16,000 residents and jobs for around 10,000 people, creating a vibrant and diverse district of its own.

Kera’s development is part of Espoo’s broader strategy to build attractive, lively, and versatile neighborhoods. Its history combined with a prime location makes Kera a truly unique place to live and enjoy life.

The Kera area already offers a wide range of services, such as local grocery stores and daycare centers. S-Market Nihtisilta and K-Market Lansa are within walking distance near Kera. The larger service hub of Leppävaara is just two train stops away, and Kauniainen’s town center with its extensive services is only one stop away. In the future, Kera’s own services will continue to grow, with a cluster of commercial services planned next to the local train station.

Schools, daycare centers, and healthcare services make everyday life easy and convenient, making the area an excellent choice for families. Kera’s own new local school is planned to open in 2030. Nearby, you’ll already find Kilonpuisto School, Kilo School, Espoo Joint School, as well as several municipal and private daycare centers. International and language-focused schools are also just a short distance away in Leppävaara and Espoo Center.

Kera area offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities and exercise. Nearby you’ll find green parks, jogging trails, and sports fields. Espoo Central Park and the Gällträsk area in Kauniainen are popular spots for outdoor recreation.

Leppävaara’s versatile sports park and swimming hall are about a 15-minute bike ride away. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy Leppävaara Range and Tapiola Golf, both just a short distance away. Kilo riding stables and a frisbee golf course provide even more hobby options.

Kera’s peaceful surroundings and pedestrian routes make the area pleasant for leisure and outdoor activities.

Kera’s location next to the railway and a well-connected street network makes it perfect for cycling — both for daily commutes and longer leisure rides. A major improvement coming soon is the new Rantarata Baana: a high-quality cycling corridor planned along the railway as part of the Espoo urban rail project. Baana will offer a straight, wide, and barrier-free cycling route that connects station areas and shortens detours.

From Kera, you can also quickly reach Espoo Central Park and Viherkallio, which offer versatile trails for mountain biking and gravel riding.
