All My Milan Apartments, Neighborhoods & Where I Bought the New House

I disappeared again and you can probably guess the reason. Basically, I underestimated this house thing and what was supposed to be a three-month, max six-month process, ended up being an almost two-year ordeal. And rather than risk making the same mistakes I did during the year-long mortgage battle, I decided to be really involved and present during the renovations. This meant I didn’t really have any time to film which was unfortunate but it worked! The house is done! I firmly believe that you can’t truly appreciate the dimensions of your achievements if you don’t remember where you started so today we’re going to look back on all my past Milan apartments and neighborhoods before I introduce you to my new one! Let’s go!

First congratulations on getting the remodeling done in such a short period! And of course, your subscribers will always understand that sometimes life gets tough! I'm glad that you are on the other side of this process

[@paulfigueroa9978]

Congratulations on your new home together, Tia! And welcome back!

[@mire97music]

NoLo is a great place to live if you want to live in the city. I've lived all my life in the outskirts of Milan and I think I would never move to the city center. The downfall is that here you absolutely need a car to move around and you can't rely only on public transportation, but I prefer it because it's quieter and it feels safe.

[@misstiataylor_]

You’re right! The suburbs are also the only place you could probably get an affordable family home so that can’t be ignored!

[@Sena__]

Famagostaaa :) which is also not the fanciest part of Milan, but I ended up liking it very much

[@lindad4672]

Congratulazioni!, Tia!

[@hat880]

Notification GANGGGGGG!!!!! Tia i think it is about time we made a name for the community...maybe like the Abiolas ( the wealthy ones) because Tia likes economics and i think it honours the yoruba culture of careful naming SO EXCITED for the house!!!!!

[@misstiataylor_]

Ayyyy! You think? 😂 it’s definitely me, maybe the little abis 😂 I’m so bad at coming up with stuff like that but I’ll ask what the people think! And yessss get ready, the transformation of the house is actually insane!

[@hat880]

@@misstiataylor_ the Abis is pretty cute. I can definitely see that. You have come from so far!

[@anitaferro1405]

Idk now but 3 years ago Nolo was in pure gentrification process, nice and cheap place to live at that time but at what cost?

[@sashalawrence4786]

Well done T!!was praying for you. Knew you were off somewhere doing great things. Proud of you🥳

[@misstiataylor_]

You guys can always count on me to come back from hiatus with a BANG💥😍

[@LuxembourgInfohub]

Congratulations Tia! 🎉 Such great news!

[@frogsandflowers5453]

omggg i remember being in high school in the US when you posted your apartment tour!!!! that was back when i would fantasize about living in italy. a few years later and i'm still not living there lol, but i am living in europe!!

[@misstiataylor_]

Omggg well congrats on that move 🤩 so glad that I could be a small part of your journey, auguri!!

[@1818Pancakes]

I studied abroad in Milan, I lived right in front of the lambrate green line stop, I was studying at unicatt. I didn't research anything about the areas and if you'd walk a few streets down there def was a sketchy vibe. I miss the days of just hopping on the metro for a commute, here in the US I drive an hour to go to work each way when we go in.

[@niquenique3215]

Team via padova here 🤚🏾 😅 i love how its well connected whether public transport or taxi its convenient anytime even late night and the houses are quite affordable “imo”

[@misstiataylor_]

I agree! Thought the area near loreto is really expensive now 🥲 the secret is out that it’s the spot!

[@enoch8604]

Oh so we were basically neighbours once 😃, team Gorla/Cimiano, and I've never crosspaths with you. Such a big small world we have

[@Teachingtea]

Love your videos...I'm moving to Italy, is there a black Facebook group or other social media group you joined to meet other black folks in Italy?

[@hisfavleo]

guardo molti dei tuoi video e essendo stesso nera con un po' di italiana in me e mi ispiri. voglio trasferirmi a milano in futuro e amo la cultura italiana (mangiamo molto cibo e dessert italiani soprattutto durante le vacanze) 🤍

[@robyfiorili]

Ma pensa. Ti conosco come youtuber da quattro o cinque anni e non sapevo che abitavi in zona. Io sono in via Palmanova a 20 metri dalla metropolitana di Cimiano (sono nato e sempre vissuto tra Cimiano e Crescenzago)

[@orrinjohnson7248]

you got your apartment remodelled in 2 months, yet it took me a month to get wifi lol

[@misstiataylor_]

Great minds think alike 😉

[@damienmitchell818]

Well done to you, living and buying in Italy

[@CDaeda]

Any crime free neighborhoods?

[@serenaferrari2810]

Best neighborhood to live in Milan: Piazza Piemonte, the area between the red line stops Pagano, Wagner and Buonarroti is a dream. Obviously quite expensive, but to my point of view, wonderful area to go live in.

[@goldensnitch6476]

Ciao Tia! Vivo anche io a Nolo, ma non è uno dei miei quartieri preferiti. Ho vissuto a città studi ed è stato l’appartamento e il quartiere che ho preferito. La mia seconda casa è stata in zona bicocca. Ora vivo a nolo ma sicuramente appena potrò cambierò e vorrei spostarmi verso un quartiere più residenziale. Nolo ottima per prezzi (anche se stanno pericolosamente aumentando) e ottimamente collegata! Magari ci incontreremo in giro!

[@meredithvaughn5272]

Tia- I loved this video! I recently moved to Milan to pursue my masters and I am so lucky to live in P Venezia. I LOVE location but hate the price. Thanks so much for putting this together- I am looking forward to exploring more options for my second year of school :)

[@misstiataylor_]

Porta Venezia is the dream neighborhood hehehe but yes definitely take a look up north if you want something lively but affordable!

[@circadianarchist]

Congratulazioni! Non vedo l'ora di vedere un tour della casa 😍 ma non ti preoccupa un po' che tutti sappiano in che zona abiti? Comunque condivido al 100% quello che hai detto su via Padova, qualche anno fa ci furono dei disordini in via Padova che contribuirono molto alla sua cattiva fama, ma per molti versi questa fama è ingiustificata.

[@misstiataylor_]

Su via Padova 👏🏾👏🏾 poi penso di essere stata abbastanza generale 👀 ci sono influencer ben più influenti che condividono i loro edifici e sono ancora vivi quindi… spero 🤞🏾😅 ma non potevo resistere dare un shout out alla zona, sconosciuta e sottovalutata

[@chiaramilanoli1997]

Congrats on finally moving! I think getting a place near la Martesana is actually a good choice, it's a nice neighborhood especially now thanks to NoLo. I've always lived in Città Studi and I love it here, it will be a sad moment if I'll ever move to another part of the city

[@misstiataylor_]

Thank you!! It was a parto but in hindsight it’s now starting to feel worth it 😍 and città studi is great! Tbh I think every neighborhood in Milan has its special points and once you find the one that works for you, you stay 😅

[@willyw0nka]

Ok that is very impressive. 2 months to do this in Italy is lowkey heroic

[@ludovicabrambilla1467]

Ahhhh I love this!!! Congratulations!!! Non vedo l'ora di vedere la TUA nuova casa! Sei letteralmente l'unica youtuber/influencer che abbia mai seguito e una delle motivazioni è sempre stata il fatto che mi sentivo collegata i qualche modo. Mi spiego meglio: quando ti sei trasferita in Italia io stavo facendo l'anno all'estero negli States e adoravo i tuoi video sulle differenze USA/Italy... e poi ti sei trasferita nella mia zona(sono cresciuta in via Padova e vivo in viale Monza altezza Pasteur..centro Noo insomma haha) Sentirr che ne parli e che ormai la senti anche tu la tua zona e ne dici le cose giuste mi rende felice!!!!

[@IzzyRain]

I miss Milan so much 🧡 thank you for showing us the city!

[@anthonycurzi7521]

Very interesting rundown of Milan's neighborhoods.

[@misstiataylor_]

Just think, these were only a few of many

[@johnoliver2022]

I have spent 3 years in città studi ... The best area in my opinion at 10 minutes by tram from piazza Duomo ❤️❤️😍😍🥰

[@ilarialosa805]

You live in the samd street where i live! You passed by my apartment while walking in the street Our doors are just 200 mt far from one another! Should you need anything don't hesitate to contact me.Welcome to Nolo

Huge congrats Tia. I've been following your channel for a few years now. I love Italy... Plan to visit one day.

[@victorialee1323]

You know, Tia, you are sooo good as video maker. I love your relaxing videos, I actually use them as listening exercise because I do love your accent! I was Born in Milan and I appreciate the way you talk about my city, you know it for sure. I hope you the best!✨

[@andreaorofalo]

I've lived in via Pergolesi, between Corso Buenos Aires and piazza Caiazzo. I was renting there and I had been doing that for almost 10 years. It was great: a lot of shops, restaurants, bars and very very close to metro stations (red, green and yellow lines), bus/tram stations and Stazione Centrale. Then I succeed in buying my own apartment, in Città Studi, less than a mile from my old place. I'm still very close to at least a metro station (Piola/green line - 5 minutes walking) anyway. Thanks God the buying process was smooth and apart from the exceptional amount of money involved, it was even fun. If I remember correctly when I was still looking for an apartment to buy, I went to see one in via Bertelli. I don't remember much about it but it was a nice area, with a lot of trees and quiet...

[@cmqlylia7379]

sono felice per te 🥺🥺💕 mi ricordo i tuoi video vecchi e anche le case quindi non vedo l’ora di che esca il video su questa 🥰

Congratulations, Tia! I'm so happy for you! Honestly, it was nice to hear a different perspective on via Padova, since I was always one of the people that were VERY VERY sceptical of it (even now, I would prefer Colonne, but I totally get your point). With the new year, I'll be moving to S.Agostino on the green line, super close to viale Papiniano and I can't wait!!!
