New to Naples

Hello,

I'm an American moving to Naples next month. Any tips on good areas to rent an apartment? areas I should avoid? general advice? Thanks in advance!

Ciao

Hi Lisa,

Welcome to Expat-blog! :)

I hope other members will be able to advise on good areas in Naples.

You may post an advert in the Naples classifieds > accommodation section. It might help you in your accommodation search.

I wish you good luck

Hi johnmackenzieblack!

How about introducing yourself first?

Hello Lisa,

Vomero/Rione Alto and Chiaia are the best places to move as a foreigner.  They are quite relaxed, a bit less chaotic, close to some of the English schools (if you're coming here to teach), but a bit more upmarket so are more expensive (average 300 - 400 euros pp).  Best to avoid Garibaldi, Gianturco, the Quartiere Spagnoli and Scampia, at least until you are more settled. 

One of the best websites for accomodation is eaststanza.it

Any further questions please feel free to ask.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Michael
