Rent for Trento 700€ is a joke ;)))

You will pay 600 for a room inside an apartment.

No nightlife, not well-connected city to anything. Aperitivo is 9 euro for a spritz ans a few chips. (Compared to Milan where you eat like a king for 11 euros).

Trento is sh itwhole.

This is the worst part of Italy, despite picturesque and beautiful landscape.
The price of 570 for a apartment outside the center is for a room!!!
Restaurant prices are way higher than their counterpart in Milan.
There is a big big housing crisis here, not a single house or apartment is built here.
So the problem will be 2x, a)finding a room, and b)the price 300-700 euros
Cost of living is way higher than large Italian cities like Milan, Venice or Turin.
The city has very negative vibe, with unwelcoming people.
The city is not connected at all. Though there is an airport in Verona, most economic prices/flights depart from Bergamo.
The only good thing is the nature around, and you MUST have a car for that.
+ The city has NO nightlife.
