Francis has at his disposal the Papal Apartments in the Apostolic Palace of the Vatican but, so far, has chosen to live in a small apartment in the Vatican. At least for now he is staying in the small but comfortable apartment in Casa Santa Marta where he was lodged during the conclave that elected him.

He lived in a small apartment in downtown Buenos Aires, Argentina. He could have lived in the Bishop's Palace but chose to live a humble life. As pope he has continued a simpler lifestyle and chosen to live in a simple apartment in the Casa Santa Marta rather than in the Papal Apartments of the Apostolic Palace.

Normally the pope would live in the Papal Apartments of the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican. However, Francis has decided to live in the Domus Sanctæ Marthæ in a simple and modest apartment. The Domus Sanctæ Marthæ (Latin for Saint Martha's House; in Italian, Casa Santa Marta) is a building completed in 1996 adjacent to St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City. Built during the reign of Pope John Paul II, it functions as a guest house for clergy having business with the Holy See, and as the hotel residence of the members of the College of Cardinals when they are participating in a Papal Conclave to elect a new Pope.
