Winter

Damp and cold

January and February can be damp and cold, especially in old stone buildings. It is not shorts weather year-round.

Neighbourhoods

Vieux Nice: buzzing and historic but noisy, crowded in season, no elevators, near-impossible parking. Cimiez: quiet, aristocratic and hilltop but needs a car. Le Port (Lympia): hip and foodie but rents have risen fast.

Safety

Generally safe, with petty crime and pickpocketing concentrated in tourist areas.
