I would move near my sister's family to Brescia:

It's a smallish Italian city, good connectivity to Milan and Venice for major metros (both within about 1.5 hour train ride) , plus close to cities like Verona, Padua, Parma, Modena, etc. Not to mention some amazing lakes and hiking. Plus I get to be close to my adorable niece and nephew.
There's a lot to not like about living in Italy but the amazing food and dedication to enjoying life make it worth the lack of some modern conveniences and weird politics, IMO. Her father-in-law got prescribed A VACATION recently. He got a doctor's note saying he needed a week off. What a country.
