12 Best Places to Live or Retire in Northern Italy

Just visited Bolzano and immediately fell for it. Great combination of cultures, phenomenal quality of living, and the Dolomite’s. Along with Verona and Siena it is one of my favorite smaller cities in Italy.

My dream from childhood has always been to travel the world at the age of 25 due to a retina problem I lost most of my eye sight but still I wanna pursue my dreams Watching these videos really motivates me to run after my dreams 🎭 I wanna be an inspiration for others through my channel 💙

The Lake region (Maggiore, Como & Garda) is nothing short of Magnificent!

Just be aware that living in Northern Italy means your Social Security will be taxed as regular income according to the regular Italian graduated income tax. In the south, there are towns (<20,000 population) where you can get a 7% tax rate on your SS.

I’m glad you didn’t mention Bergamo, it can stay my secret.

Thanks so much for providing this awesome video, enjoyed it immensely,... My mother is from Lake Como, my Father from Calabria. Both places are magnificent in there own special way. All my relatives from Calabria moved to beautiful Lake Como many many years ago, mainly for higher work opportunities then Calabria, so all my relatives live there, i only have one Cusin living here in Australia, so coming from an Italian family background, as you can imagine, I have plenty. I've been very fortunate to of travelled most of Europe/Italy, but Lake Como is definitely my favourite place to stay in Italy, besides having free accommodation whenever iam able to visit family, the history itself going back to Roman times, together with spot on seasonal weather, friendly locals ready to help out anytime, if your nice to them of course, and breathtaking views along the lake, with amazing Restaurants,, Bars, and Cafes, not to mention the many Boutique clothing shop, with more Restaurants, Cafes and Wine Bars in the Medieval city centre, surrounded by watchtowers, and narrow cobblestones streets, manly made for Roman Chariots only to use back then, Lake Como is one of the Best places to visit if considering travelling to Italy, it takes 10 minutes by car to cross into beautiful Switzerland and about 45 minutes to travel to Milano...basically you can travel from Lake Como by car, train, or bus all over Beautiful Europe, witch in my personal opinion, is my #1 place to travel, anywhere in the world, hands down 👉🏻🇮🇹🕶👍🏻

Great list!

Having maps is a great addition and advantage 👍

Thanks!

Excellent video

WONDERFUL CHOICE

Great list, well researched and narrated. 👍 ~ Just please add chapter titles and timing within your comments whenever providing such comprehensive list.

Thank you Jules. You’re the best, love you and videos. Please can we have more HIIT with up beat music ♥️♥️♥️

On the hills of Central Italy (Tuscany, Lazio, Umbria and Marche) it is even better.

Very nice 👍 ❤

What a wonderful world amazing ❤

I liked to see your opinions/suggestions about this places. I just have to say that at the beginning of the video you named all the regions but you did not say Trentino. Very important one. You showed the provincia of Bolzano and spoke about the lake Garda. I care to say that there is many beautiful situations in Trentino Alto Adige (it’s one region with provincia of Trento and Bolzano) all the north part of the lake Garda is amazing too and is part of a Trentino. Any question about that area please lmk. I can guide you about everything there. Ciao

Anywhere within ~100km of Milano (and often further) is plagued with smoggy atmosphere more than half the time.

The university of Bologna is Alma Mater. The first university in the western World ! ❤❤
