In the last 10 years, Palermo has become the hottest neighborhood in Buenos Aires for travelers, expats, and Argentines alike. And while to this day it still holds the title of hippest barrio, many people are looking for areas that are cheaper or more authentically Porteño.
Travelers can now check out Caballito, Villa Crespo, and Almagro, three traditionally Argentine neighborhoods near Palermo which are more affordable and still have great offerings of cafes, bars, shopping, and transport.
