Moving recommendations!

Hello Everyone!
My family (wife and 3yr old) will be making a giant leap from Los Angeles to Madrid in about 4 months!
I was hoping to get a few tips regarding areas to live between Madrid (centro) and Fuenlabrada.
Work will be in Fuenlabrada but we want to be near the city as we will be going there as often as possible to not miss our culture so much. Korean descendants but practically lived in USA our whole lives.
Please let me know where i should be looking for housing! Alcorcon? Getafe? Leganes? Or just stay in Salamanca and commute? I hear traffic is not so bad (LA IS THE WORST)

We are looking for safe neighborhoods (and from what ive been seeing on idealista lots of places further north have great apartment ammenities.

Thanks in advance!

Hi andresko, I lived in Alcorcon, you said your work will be in Fuenlabrada? If you will take private car to work, Alcorcon is near in Fuenlabrada but i am not sure with the public transpo, but centro which is Madrid from Alcorcon, public transportation is easy and fast. 😊
