Eixample
La Sagrada Família
If you live here, you live two streets from the most visited monument in Spain, on the two streets where nobody visits.
A working residential neighbourhood that happens to contain the most-visited monument in Spain. Locals navigate around the coach parking. Good metro, good markets, unremarkable in the way that makes somewhere easy to live.
Ordinary residential Eixample wrapped around an extraordinary building. Two streets from the basilica the tourists vanish entirely and the price drops with them.
