Value my propertyThe daily market, the restored Gare du Sud and tramway line 1. Village life just north of the centre.
In brief
The Liberation quarter is built around its market, held on place du General-de-Gaulle and known across the city for its fresh produce. The restoration of the Gare du Sud, now a covered hall with restaurants, completed the change.
It is today one of the most sought-after parts of Nice, with a real neighbourhood life, local shops and a population of families.
The property market
Demand centres on two-bedroom flats, sought by families for the market, the tramway and the schools. Renovated homes close to the Gare du Sud or a tram stop are the most contested.
The area has risen a great deal in ten years. Strong differences remain from one building to the next and with distance from the tramway: a few hundred metres are enough to change things.
