🇦🇷 Where to live in Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires residential areas range from dense nightlife districts to quiet streets where the main draw is a park or a market. The Palermo barrios and San Telmo put bars, restaurants and shops at the door, while Belgrano, Colegiales and Núñez are calmer and more residential. Most of the areas listed sit within a short walk of a rapid-transit station, generally three to eight minutes.
