🇬🇷 Where to live in Thessaloniki
Thessaloniki's residential areas run from the dense seafront centre out to hillside suburbs and seaside municipalities to the southeast. The centre and its adjoining quarters mix markets, bars and university life within walking distance of metro stations, while Ano Poli sits higher up around the castle walls. Further out, Toumba is tightly built and local in character, Kalamaria faces the water, and Panorama spreads across the hillside above the gulf.
