Some cool spots here for sure.. and interesting geopolotics: https://www.wsj.com/articles/italys-alpine-border-melts-and-...
Turns out the city in the state of Georgia is named after this region. I don't know much about the city, except that a handful of friends from my university days are from it, so I was surprised, to say the least, to see this pop up on HN. Haven't thought about the city in years. [1]

Great views, great skiing, great food. Prices are high and economic opportunities low.
Piedmonte is far more affordable with all of the benefits of Aosta valley, and the bonus you can work in Turin or even commute to Milan.
interesting to see this on hn. I grew up there. It's the smallest region in Italy with roughly 130k people living there. It's always surprising to meet people abroad why come from Aosta. Even fellow Italians often tell me I'm the only one they have ever met who's from this tiny little region.
Aosta Valley is a really bad place to live in: people are not friendly, food is not so good compared to other regions and job opportunities are very low
Since there isn’t much of a topic here to get sidetracked from… HN community, has anyone here looked into getting a second home or entirely moving to Italy? Any experiences to be shared? I have the ability, but wonder if anyone has any success stories or high recommendations.
why is this on hacker news? In italy we do have 5 autonomous regions apart from Val D'Aosta (Sardegna, Sicilia, Trentino Alto-Adige, Friuli Venezia Giulia)
