Unsafe city to leave the car on the street, in the night someone stole the car's headlights. Better to leave the car at home.

The mortgage interest rate is way too high. I just used the online calculator at a local bank and got 1.872% fixed for 20 years.
See mps.it

The internet prices are strange too. You can get GIGABIT internet for under €20 (see https://tariffe-mobile.segugio.it/copertura-fibra-ottica-adsl/verifica-copertura-catania-ct.aspx#risparmioLuceGas )

How can the price here be over €30 for 60mbps speeds?

Some of the quoted market prices are very high. I added new data but some prices were flagged as varying too much from the current data
