Parque Patricios

South-side and park-adjacent, reshaped by the tech district's offices, with better transit than most of the south.

Parque Patricios at a glance

Parque Patricios is old industrial blocks turned into offices and the city's tech district, with low houses, a park and a hospital cluster around them. It covers 3.75 km² in the city's south, Comuna 4, with 40,657 residents at the 2022 census — about 10,800 people per km², less dense than the median barrio (14,700).

Who it's for

People who want value, the H line, and a practical commute to the center or the south.

The catch

The tech district brought offices, not amenities; it is still thin on shops and restaurants next to the north.

median barrio

The overall read is an even weighting of the 12 marks we have for this barrio — a starting point, not a verdict. Of our six lenses it ranks highest under “Quiet & green”. Cost value stands on the asking sale price per m², as no rent is quoted here. The tick is the median of the 48 barrios. Eight marks are computed from public data and four are our read; what goes into each is on how we score.

What it costs

average asking prices · Q2 2026

The city statistics office had too few rental listings here to quote an average this quarter. Missing data does not tell us whether rents here are cheap or expensive.

To buy: about US$1,574 per m² for a used two-bedroom (−27% vs the city). Budget separately for expensas (building fees) and utilities. These used-apartment benchmarks are not furnished short-stay quotes or offers. Figures are averages of what landlords ask — IDECBA (city statistics office), from Argenprop listings; 2nd quarter 2026, provisional — converted at the Banco Central de la República Argentina (BCRA, Argentina’s central bank) retail seller rate, Q2 2026 average.

Reported robbery & theft

reported crimes · 2025

43.3 reported robberies and thefts per 1,000 residents — above the city rate of 32.2.

886 robberies (with violence or threat) and 873 thefts were reported in Parque Patricios in 2025, against 40,657 residents in private dwellings at the 2022 census. Reporting rates, visitors, population changes since the census and differences between blocks limit the comparison. These counts do not measure all crime or predict personal safety.

A barrio is half the decision. The other half is the lease — the guarantee, the up-front cash, the contract terms — and that part we walk through with you.
