How do I find a place to live in Rome?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...

"When looking for a place to live in Rome, it is important to consider your budget, desired location, and the type of accommodation you are looking for. There are a variety of options available, from renting an apartment or house to staying in a hostel or hotel. If you are looking for a more permanent residence, you can search online for rental listings or contact a local real estate agent. Additionally, there are many websites that offer short-term rentals, such as Airbnb, HomeAway, and Booking.com. It is also possible to find furnished apartments for rent through websites such as EasyRoommate and Spotahome. Finally, if you are looking for a more traditional living arrangement, you can look for a room in a shared apartment or house," commented one expat who made the move to Rome, Italy.

"My husband and I looked at over 35 apartments before finally finding the "right" one. We used leasing agents. We lived in a corporate apartment for 3 months and walked around/drove around a lot looking at the buildings and neighborhoods. A lot of the apartments we saw were too dark, the spaces were all cut up into smaller areas, weren't big enough, no elevator available (big consideration when you have small children), etc," remarked another expat in Rome, Italy.
