"New digs" is a slang term for a new place to live. It often implies that the new residence is temporary, but it doesn't have to be. It can refer to a more long-term situation as well.
The origins of the phrase are unclear. Some believe it stems from WWI, when soldiers would have to dig new trenches as they arrived at new battle stations, and others think it comes from a theatrical use, as new acting troupes rolled into town on tour and needed places to stay.
