In this post we will try to show you the advantages and disadvantages of living in the different areas of Madrid \u00a0and giving you some tips you may have into account when choosing a housing in the capital city of Spain. Let’s know the best neighborhoods of Madrid!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The city centre of Madrid is one of the best places to live, without any doubt. You can choose between living in Sol, near the Square where every year Spanish people starts the year with the ceremony called “Las Campanadas” and followed by a huge party. There is always people in this area is the centre of the capital city and it’s always crowded. Having a walk across Gran V\u00eda is always a good idea. \u00a0Apart from that, Sol\u00a0is also a good place for student’s nightlife, there are many places where you can have fun, like Joy Eslava<\/a> ,\u00a0<\/em>the most reputeted club in this area. Regarding the prices, it’s not difficult to find an student accommodation in Madrid City Centre starting at 350\u20ac near Sol area. If your university is close to this area, this choice is perfect for you!<\/p>\n La Latina is also a very centric area, it’s very close to Sol and other centric areas. This part of the city is very known for having the best vibe of the city. The narrow streets of La Latina normally finish in an square, such as\u00a0La Cebada, La Paza\u00a0<\/em>or the biggest open air market of the city:\u00a0El Rastro.\u00a0<\/em>But what makes this area special is the good vibe during weekends and every afternoon during spring. La Latina is full of bars and terraces and people from every single corner of Madrid goes to La Latina to have beer and tapas. It’s always full of students and young people, so it can be a good spot to practice your Spanish while you drink a beer. There are a lot of rooms for students available for students in La Latina, you can rent an student room from 350\u20ac and you can find bigger rooms at 500\u20ac.<\/p>\n Malasa\u00f1a is undoubtedly the hipster neighborhood of Madrid, the best place for alternative people. The history of this neighborhood is quite interesting, it’s name comes from Manuela Malasa\u00f1a, a local \u00a0heroine during the revolution against French army in 1808. But the cultural origin of Malasa\u00f1a comes from the 80’s decade, when a cultural and musical revolution called\u00a0La Movida<\/em>\u00a0shaked the city and the whole country. It’s important to know that the democracy came back to Spain on 1978 after 40 years of dictatorship and this revolution changed youth’s mind. Nowadays the alternative vibe of the area is one of the most famous od Madrid’s nightlife. The price for a room in Malasa\u00f1a starts at 400\u20ac.<\/p>\n Chueca is worldwide known for being the\u00a0gay neighborhood<\/em> of Madrid. It used to be an slum until the decade of the 80’s, when impulsed by\u00a0La Movida<\/em>, different clubs and bars for homosexuals were opened in this suburb. With the time, homosexuals started to move to this part of the city and established different shops, transforming this neighborhood completely. Chueca is also known for the\u00a0Gay Pride\u00a0<\/em>celebration, which attracts people from the whole country. Going on party on Chueca is alsoa god option, it’s always full of young people and not all the clubs are gay, so you can choose from a wide variety.<\/p>\n Lavapi\u00e9s is also what we call a\u00a0barrio castizo<\/em>, a traditional Spanish neighborhood. Most of its inhabitants are workers and the multiculturality in Lavapi\u00e9s is higher that in other city areas. After the Spanish civil war this part of the city was abandoned and it was not until the 70’s decade when the young inhabitants of Madrid started to move to this area because of the lower prices of the properties. It’s also the area where associations have more importance in Madrid and it’s also typical to celebrate foreign festivities such as Ramadan and The Chinesse New Year. Living in Lavapi\u00e9s is cheaper than in other centric areas and it’s also a safe area to live.<\/p>\n Chamber\u00ed district is located in the north of the city Centre and is really close to one \u00a0of the most known universities of the city, UPM. When we walk around Chamber\u00ed, we realize that it’s the typical Spanish district, what we normally call\u00a0castizo<\/em>. The buildings in this area are huge, beautiful and remind us that once the Spanish aristocracy used to own a house there. That’s why we can still admire buildings from the XIX century, which are quite expensive for students. We can say that some of the neighborhoods of this district are considered to be exclusive in Madrid Centre, and the price per room goes from 450\u20ac to 650\u20ac, depending on the location and the equipment. We don’t really reccommend you to live there unless you find an affordable place in a good location for you.<\/p>\nLa Latina<\/h3>\n
