The honest read

Working in its favour
  • Plenty of daily life within reach — 137 places to eat within 5km.
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 0.8km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Milano Linate Airport (LIN), about 20.3km away.
  • An established international community — 81 residents from Western countries already here.
Depends on you

Nothing notable to weigh either way here.
