Les Corts
Pedralbes
If you live here, you live among gardens and villas within walking distance of four campuses, and find there is almost nothing to rent.
Wealthy, quiet and car-oriented, with French-speaking families around the Lycée, the Monestir de Pedralbes and the Palau Reial gardens. The campus corner near Palau Reial puts UB Diagonal, UPC Nord, IESE and Esade-Pedralbes within a five to seventeen minute walk. The rest empties after dark, in a safe rather than a menacing way.
Barcelona's most residential neighbourhood: villas, gardens and campus edges. Students are here in residences and colegios mayores, almost never in a shared flat.
