It is located at southernmost end of the city, bordering on the comune of Rozzano, and it is traversed by the Lambro river. The district has an area of about 400,000 m², centered on the main thoroughfare Via dei Missaglia. Having started as a commuter town in the 1960s, with large prefabricated apartment blocks destined to house immigrant workers coming from the South of Italy, the district is usually listed among those most degraded (e.g., having the highest crime rates) in the surroundings of Milan. The name Gratosoglio is derived from the Latin words gratum solium "agreeable throne", which apostle Barnabas (founder of the Milanese church), according to a local legend, pronounced when he was about to leave Milan.

Vaiano Valle is a rural district ("quartiere") of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 5 administrative division. It is located south of the city's urban area, within the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano nature reserve. Before 1869, it was an autonomous comune.Once a rural town, Vaiano Valle depopulated in the 20th century, and it is now one of the most degraded rural areas within Milan. Romani nomads have settled in several slums in the area, and have often had frictions with the local population as well as the city authorities. The district is also plagued with environmental problems, such as ubiquitous, illegal rubbish dumps, and high crime rates.

Vigentino is a district ("quartiere") of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 5 administrative division, located south of the city centre. Before 1923, Vigentino was an autonomous, rural comune. By the mid 20th century, agricultural activities were dismissed, and the area was largely urbanized, with the construction of large apartment blocks. The name "Vigentino" comes from viginti, the Latin word for "twenty"; this is because Vigentino lies on the road from Milan to Pavia, 20 miles before Pavia. The road has been a major thoroughfare in Lombardy since the middle ages; the walls of Milan had a city gate on that road, Porta Vigentina, which was named after Vigentino. The main historic centre of Vigentino is at the crossing of Via Ripamonti, Via Quaranta and Via Solaroli. A sort of secondary centre (which is sometimes considered a district in its own, and in that case is referred to as Quartiere Fatima) is located between Via Broni and Via Chopin. The district is connected to the city centre by tramway line 24, while bus routes 34 and 95 link it with the M2 metro at Famagosta and the M3 at Corvetto and at Brenta. Bus route 99 reaches from Vigentino outwards to the city limits near the comune of Opera, and further interurban routes lead to other comuni lying south of Milan. Exit n.8 of the A50 Tangenziale Ovest motorway ring road leads to Vigentino through via Ripamonti. As many ex-rural, ex-industrial districts of the southern periphery of Milan, Vigentino is relatively degraded, affected by environmental problems (such as infestations of rats and illegal rubbish dumps) as well as social problems, such as slums of immigrants and Romani nomads. A major landmark of Vigentino are the "Cortili di Via Matera" ("courtyards of Via Matera"), a neighborhood that has been realized in the place where an old industrial depot used to be, and that includes houses, offices, and a theatre, called "Teatro del Vigentino". This place was included in a list of the 100 most important courtyards of Milan by Milan's Tourism Office.

Chiaravalle (Lombard: Ceravall [tʃeraˈʋal]) is a district (quartiere) of Milan, Italy, part of the Zone 5 administrative division of the city. It is located in the periphery south of the city centre, within the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano nature reserve. Before 1923, Chiaravalle was an autonomous comune, named Chiaravalle Milanese. Despite being annexed to Milan, Chiaravalle has maintained the character of an autonomous town. The park that embraces the district also separates it from the urban agglomeration of the city. This isolation is reinforced by the scarceness of public transportation to the centre, which mostly consists of a single bus line connecting Chiaravalle to Porta Romana. As this bus line has a stop at the Milan Metro station of Corvetto, this is the subway station that serves Chiaravalle, despite that of Rogoredo being closer. The main landmark of the Chiaravalle district is eponymous abbey, a Gothic-Romanesque 12th century monastic complex.

The Abbey of Santa Maria di Rovegnano (Latin: Sanctæ Mariæ Clarævallis Mediolanensis) is a Cistercian monastic complex in the comune of Milan, Lombardy, northern Italy. The borgo that has developed round the abbey was once an independent commune called Chiaravalle Milanese, now included in Milan and referred to as the Chiaravalle district. The abbey was founded on 22 January 1135 as a daughterhouse of Clairvaux; it is one of the first examples of Gothic architecture in Italy, although maintaining some late Romanesque influences.
