‘World’s coolest’ neighborhood for 2024 named by Time Out

‘World’s coolest’ neighborhood for 2024 named by Time Out

While ticking famous landmarks off your bucket list is always a highlight of a city break, there’s also something special about randomly stumbling upon a local neighborhood offering cozy coffee shops, dreamy bookstores and chic dining spots aplenty.

That’s the premise behind global listing guide Time Out’s latest roundup of the “world’s coolest” neighborhoods. While a city’s most famous spots tend to be chockablock with tourists, these lesser known areas allow visitors to moonlight as locals for an afternoon.

The destinations on Time Out’s list might not be the most well-known parts of a city, but they’re worth a visit thanks to their “culture, community spirit, nightlife, food and drink,” as Time Out puts it.

To produce the 2024 rankings, the media company’s global network of editors and writers supplied their picks, which were then vetted against criteria including what Time Out calls the area’s “one-of-a-kind local flavor.”

Topping the list is the vibrant quarter of Notre-Dame du Mont in Marseille, France, famed for its street art and nightlife. It’s a place where “everyone knows and helps each other,” according to owners of local eatery Razzia.

“It constantly evolves. The shops are authentic, so are the people who work and live here,” Razzia proprietors Axelle Poittevin and Thomas Benayoun told CNN Travel, adding “long live Notre-Dame Du Mont!”

Razzia is one of several Notre-Dame Du Mont establishments highlighted by Time Out. Among the other businesses spotlighted is bookstore Histoire de l’œil, a staple of the neighborhood for almost two decades.

“Our bookshop is 19 years old and we have seen the neighborhood change a lot and that’s so great,” owner Nadia Champesme told CNN Travel. “Notre-Dame du Mont is really a very cool place to live and shop.”

Marie Dijon, owner of Caterine restaurant – namechecked by Time Out for its “incredible octopus kebab” – grew up in the area.

“This is the neighborhood where everything happens,” Dijon told CNN Travel, adding the cultural diversity of Notre-Dame Du Mont helps make it special.

Balancing the ‘real’ and the ‘trendy’

At number two on Time Out’s is Mers Sultan, in Casablanca, Morocco, praised by Time Out for its arty authenticity (“it’s still real, with nary a trendy coffee shop (or trendy anything, really) in sight,” is how Time Out puts it).

Meanwhile, Pererenan in Bali, Indonesia is spotlighted at number three, thanks to what Time Out describes as “pristine beaches, cozy cafés, eclectic shops, and a certain laidback cool, devoid of noise and traffic.”

The highest ranking US neighborhood is Kerns, in Portland, Oregon – chosen for its small town vibes and rounding out Time Out’s top five. Meanwhile the Stokes Croft and St Paul’s neighborhood in Bristol, in southwest of England, comes in at number six.

Bristol resident Alex Egge told CNN Travel that Stokes Croft and St Paul’s “sum up the city’s distinctive and rebellious identity,” adding the thrift stores in the neighborhood are also a highlight.

“It’s cool to see [Stokes Croft and St Paul’s] in the top 10 and glad St Paul’s got a mention since it has a huge Afro-Caribbean population and annual carnival which takes over the city,” Egge told CNN Travel.

Interestingly, Principe Real, in Lisbon appears on Time Out’s list at number 8, six years after appearing in the list in 2018.

“There’s no rule against a neighborhood appearing multiple times,” Grace Beard, travel editor at Time Out, told CNN Travel. “This year’s list is a real mix of surprising, overlooked districts that have only just reached their moment and historically “cool” neighborhoods experiencing a renaissance. Príncipe Real is a prime example of the latter, and testament to how neighborhoods adapt and evolve without losing their identity.”
