Torino Moving to Torino

I am moving to Torino in the coming months and want some advice about nice areas to live - we're looking for a young neighbourhood, close to restaurants/cafes, somewhere central.

Nowadays Torino really is a fine city where to live.
I try to give you some address to google map on.
Well, my best choice is "Piazza Maria Teresa", but it's very expensive.
Currently I'm living in "Piazza Vittorio Veneto". It is central, on the river Po, there is plenty of restaurants and cafès, and full of youth. BUT this means also that is a bit noisy at night.

Another "young neighbourhood, close to restaurants/cafes, somewhere central" area is the one called "quadrilatero romano".
Consider the squared area of 6 x 6 blocks centered on "Via Corte d'Appello" at "Via Bellezia".
This is the most ancient part of the city. Until '80s was a bad neighbourhood, but now this is the most bohemien part of Torino. Full of clubs and restaurants in alleys. And multiethnic. Some streets there are closed to traffic.

But as Ant said, try to be more specific about your interest if you want more specific answer.

What are you coming to do here in Torino?
Ciao.
Marco
