What it's actually like here

Living here is surprisingly affordable for Italy, especially outside the core – expect €800 for a 1-bedroom in the center, and €600 just beyond. Groceries are manageable at €270 a month, and even a mid-range meal for two won't break the bank at €40. This makes it ideal for nomads seeking an authentic Italian experience without the Florence/Rome price tag. Internet is snappy at 150 Mbps, so your video calls will be smooth, and with 10 coworking spaces, you’ll find a spot to focus. Healthcare and safety are also solid, contributing to a comfortable lifestyle. It’s walkable (score 78!), has a great climate (72), and offers easy visa access. However, be aware the nomad community is on the smaller side. If you crave a bustling digital nomad hub, this might feel a little quiet. Overall, it's a fantastic value destination for those prioritizing culture and calm over a huge expat scene.
