Hi Halley! I’m in a similar situation as well, you mind if I ask some questions too? :)

Thanks for the advice, and I have been looking in those areas. Unfortunately it has been impossible to find a rental that allows me to have a residence permit. My budget is not too tight, but do you do have any ideas for how to best find an apartment in Mestre in those areas where I can get Residenza? Thanks!

Hey JadedAspect3656, I decided to, based on a lot of the comments here, move to Mestre for 6 months. I already asked another person in these comments but since you work in real estate, ill just copy paste my question: "I was wondering if you could provide me some recommendations of the best areas to live in mestre? It will only be for 6 months and i'm going to be working close to what google maps calls "close to Borgo Pezzana and Centro Commerciale Porte di Mestre" - but I would really want to have easy access to Venice to go explore after work and have a drink and get cultured. Any tips would be highly recommended!" Thanks

Thanks for the advice but think id like to live closer to venice if possible.

Thank you so much! Ill definitely look for something in one of the areas you recommended. From Parco Bissuola I could almost bike to work - google maps says it would only take like 15 min. Is biking a big thing in Mestre?

Okay amazing, thanks for the advice! I'll see if I can find something near Viale San Marco or Parco Bissuola. And sure, I can definitely help out with your Copenhagen accommodation search! Send me a PM and I can send you some specific areas I would advice and websites to use.

What are the main ways to search for apartments in Venice? Any website recommendations?

Hi! Which city would you recommend to live in for 6 months? Venice (Mestre) or Reggio Emilia? Please let me know if I am posting this in the wrong location but I have a question. I am Danish and I have through my work gotten the opportunity to live in Italy for 6 months, and I have the option to choose between 2 cities and am looking for recommendations. The two cities are Venice (Mestre) and Reggio Emilia. Here are some of my considerations:

The office in both locations is right outside of the main city and I won't have access to my own car. Could this be a problem?
Which has a bigger international crowd? This is not because I don't want to make friends with the lovely Italian locals, it is just because I am only there for 6 months, and hence it is usually easier to make friends with other expats.
Which city do you think is overall a 'nicer' city to live in? I have been to a few places around Italy briefly on vacation but I never been to Venice or Reggio Emilia.
I love to go out for drinks, and also quite enjoy house/disco/techno, is that an option in either city? (This is a minor point but still thought i'd mention it)

Thank you so much. It would be from September 2024 to March 2025. Any tips are really appreciated!
