"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Bologna is to search online for rental listings. There are many websites that offer listings for apartments, houses, and other types of accommodation in the city. Additionally, you can also search for rental listings in local newspapers and magazines. Additionally, you can also ask friends and family who live in the area for recommendations. Finally, you can also contact local real estate agents who specialize in rental properties in Bologna," wrote a member who made the move to Bologna, Italy.
