There top 10 of the Italian neighborhoods that attract the most interest for those looking for a house to rent sees, as also happens for the sales market, the Capital as a great protagonist. RomeIn fact, it places 7 neighborhoods in the top 10. Brescia And Verona complete the list, but it is a Veronese district that comes in first place somewhat surprisingly. This was revealed by a report by idealista/data, which measured the pressure of demand on supply in every area of the country for the rental house segment.
Top 10 of the most popular neighborhoods in Italy to rent a house
As already mentioned, somewhat surprisingly, the district that receives the greatest interest in the rental house market in the first quarter of 2024 is located in Verona. We are talking about Borgo Roma-Cadidavid, which in the period examined recorded a real exploit (with a relative demand index of 73). It is an area that offers various types of real estate, from single houses to semi-detached houses, from small contexts to 70s condominiums, up to new buildings.
Two districts of the Roman suburbs complete the podium: Casilino-Centocelle (relative demand index of 69.3) and Aniene-Collatino (63.4). More generally, 6 other Capitoline neighborhoods also enter the top 10: Roma est-Autostrade (58.3), Appio Latino (58.2), Ottavia-Primavalle (49.6), Prenestino (49.5), Nomentano- Tiburtino (47).
These are peripheral neighborhoods, a fact which on the one hand highlights the limited supply of properties for rent and on the other underlines a growing increase in economic demand from those who rent. To complete the picture of the first 10 districts present in the ranking of the most searched for rentals we find another Veronese district in sixth place (Borgo Venezia with a relative demand index of 55.7) and one in Brescia in seventh place (Don Bosco-Porta Cremona-Lamarmora with a relative demand index of 50.8).
The situation in the rest of Italy
The idealista/data report was implemented through the relative demand index, an indicator that summarizes the pressure of demand on supply in each area of Italy for the rental housing segment. The indicator is processed through metrics that evaluate the number of contacts (email contacts and shares) received per ad.
The study, in detail, focused on adverts published on idealista, leading real estate portal for technological development in Italy. The report examined the data available for Municipalities that have advertisements with an asking sales price, on average, higher than 875 euros/m2 and for which there is a stock of advertisements of properties for sale of over 975 units on idealista ( and more than 50 for rent).
The first district of the South that we find in the ranking is San Michele-Is Mirrionis in Cagliari(total an index of 24.3), while the Historic Center of Naples totals a relative demand index of 23. To find the first Milanese neighborhood, however, we need to go down to the twenty-fourth position, where we find Baggio (31).
The most expensive neighborhoods to rent a house in Italy
It makes a lot of noiseabsence of Milan among the top positions in the ranking of the most popular neighborhoods to buy a house in Italy. However, it should be underlined that in Milan there are most expensive monthly rents per square meter in all of Italywhich has made the Milanese market almost inaccessible for a good portion of society, so much so that many workers who have jobs in the city direct their searches towards the hinterland or other neighboring municipalities.
The most expensive neighborhood to rent a house in Italy in the first quarter of 2024, in fact, is the historic center of Milan, where requests from landlords average around 3,123 euros per month. The center of Rome follows in the ranking, with an average monthly rent of 2,212 euros. More generally, the entire top 10 of the most expensive districts is made up of Rome and Milan areas.
While the first district in the South that we find in the ranking is Posillipo-Chiaia-San Ferdinando in Naples, where on average 1,512 euros per month are requested. The most requested district in Italy in the first quarter of 2024, Borgo Roma-Cadidavid in Verona, has a fairly low average request: 746 euros per month.
