Katina
village · Sofia
38/ 100
Below average
Katina is a village in the Novi Iskar district, some 21 km north of Sofia's centre, and one of the greenest, quietest places in our index (green 95, quiet 87). It is also growing: 15 building permits put construction in the high band for a village this size. Daily life assumes a car, with minimal walkability, weak transit links and almost no shops or venues, so it suits house-builders and commuters who choose space and silence over convenience. ↗
