Palermo is the capital of Sicily, a large Mediterranean port with a vibrant historic centre. Rents are low compared with northern Italian cities, and many renovated apartments sit inside old palazzi.
Areas to look at
Kalsa: historic quarter near the sea
Politeama: elegant, central shopping
Libertà: wide avenues, upscale
Mondello: beach district north of the city
Local rules
