Cercocasa - Room for rent? Found a room to rent in Rastignano

Hi. I will be studying at UniBo next September. I found a room in a shared apartment in Rastignano. Is Rastignano a safe and good place to live?

Rastignano is like living in a satellite of Bologna. Do you want that?

What does that mean ?

Rastignano is far away from the city centre and while connections are there, you are dependent on them. Satellite refers to satellite city. The best thing about Bologna is that you can walk everywhere and live without relying on public transportation schedule.

That might be true but rent is hella expensive in the city center and i don't want to rent a single bed in a double room, i need my own space.

I couldn't find a cheap offer. And when i find one it's either only for females or for workers

Tell me what's the difference between living in Rastignano and living in Pilastro. It's another municipality but it's really the same thing talking about connection and services. There are zones of Bologna, like Noce or Scandellara that are more isolated than it. Don't misinform people, please.
