okay guys it has that time again where it is time to come to Madrid and find an
apartment hide your wife hide your kids THE AUXILIARES ARE COMING! I've already made a
video about some tips of how you can find an apartment in Madrid I do
recommend you check it out here that video the editing is very bad but the
information is still accurate and that's why I do my communion check it out I
will be making a three-part series about how to find apartment Imogen without
going insane and so stay tuned to the other two parts of this video
okay so the first place that people really like to live is Puerta del Sol
Sol is the center most point in Madrid that you can possibly be this is where
the Madrid center starts this is where the pub crawl stat and this is where
most people like to meet up people love to live in Sol because
it's lively it's well-connected there's always something to do and it's just a
busy bustle in hustle of Sol some cons in my opinion about living in Sol is
the typical city living life the noise the trash the drunk people all these
things that you got come with living in a city is what you're gonna get living
in Sol it's also extremely expensive you're gonna pay probably between around
450 to maybe 700 for a room Sol is also famous for having apartments that
have ten different rooms no living room and they're all rented out to students
and foreigners and you'll pay around 450 to about 600 euros per room my second
place on the list in la latina la latina is also located in Madrid people love
living in la latina for the food scene the nightlife and the whole eclectic
feel of la latina some great pros of a Latina is there's
lots of bars and clubs that you can go to you're surrounded by that kind of bar
culture some cons for me to living in La latina is the Green Line is not as
fast but you're still writing the center's are you easy to get anywhere
and also for me this is foreigner central this is where all the tourists
go la latina is on every single what to do in Madrid guide so there are lots of
times where you're in bars or in a restaurant
and you're only listening to English so it's not that big of a deal but for me
this is kind of taking away from my Spanish abroad experience the third
place on my list is malasaña malasaña includes Tribunal, Chueca, Noviciado, Bilbao
malasaña is known for its hipster artsy vibe this is usually where
all the artists of Madrid live it's also a very young crowd where you're mostly
students and people under the age of 35 live there's also a lot of very
open-minded people and you will meet people from all different kinds of
personalities especially people that are kind of like going on away from the
mainstream crowd and they like to do their own type of thing is gonna meet
those types of people in malasaña some cons of living in malasaña is kind of the
obvious like all the other places it's noisy it's hella expensive like hella
expensive my friend pays 900 euros to live in a box in malasaña so it's
expensive in my opinion where are these Spanish people that are paid $4,000 a
month that can afford these hella expensive rent I don't know I don't know
where are they going off of malasaña is Chueca it's a little bit special
because this area is the LGBT community and I do recommend that if you are a
homosexual coming to Madrid to live this area is just amazing it has such a great
support system there's literally everything is Gay Pride it will just
feel so much at home you'll meet friends also my ladies out there if you're
looking for somewhere to go out and party truck is the best one you're not
gonna be getting groped all night long - you have beautiful men to look at and
three they play the best music so Chueca up or going out my fourth location on
this list is love of peace lavapies, lavapies is right in the center of Madrid and
people love living in lavapies because of the diversity of the food how cheap
it is and also just how lively it is and how well connected it is as well I
personally love lavapies if I still lived in the center
of Madrid some kind about living in lavapies
is kind of like the other things it's loud it's dirty there is a lot of cat
calling in love of his calling cat calling cat and it's a little annoying
but you get used to it also people do sell marijuana on the
streets but rather marijuana than guns so that's just me and we
have a 24-hour grocery store which trust me is very very convenient that is
really complete my fifth in my favourite area is Puente de Vallecas. Puente de Vallecas in my opinion it's one of the most underrated Barrios in Madrid
people love living Puente de Vallecas because it's cheap it's right
outside of the center it's well-connected and it's quiet I
personally live in Puente de Vallecas I absolutely love it we have a
pretty decent apartment for a fraction of the price of what we would be paying in the center
of Madrid and we're literally one-stop outside of the centre and we're still so
close to everything another underrated area that you should
check out in Madrid is cuatro caminos in my opinion it's a very affordable area
it's diverse it's cheap and you're still in the center and well-connected and I
think a lot of people look over these areas some other areas I did not mention
wasTirso de Molina, Anton Martin, Atocha and Embajadores. all these places kind
of merged together that all of the center they're all kind of similar as
far as like in the center a little expensive but I do something really nice
it's a little bit cheaper I will put all of these names in the description so
don't worry about it so that's all I have for you guys today
