While it can be noisy during festivals and events, the vibrant atmosphere and walkability make it the top choice for remote workers.

💡 Choosing Your Neighborhood

🌙

Match your schedule. Quiet areas for early risers, lively ones for night owls who work late and thrive in evening energy.

💻

Check coworking proximity. Walking distance to cafes and spaces matters a lot after a few weeks of settling in.

🏠

Try before committing. Book 1-2 weeks first before longer stays. Every neighborhood feels different at night.

💬

Ask the community. Join local nomad groups for recent tips—neighborhoods change faster than any guide.
