I'm living with my aunt vs I live with my aunt

Both of these phrases are correct, but they're used in slightly different contexts. 'I'm living with my aunt' implies that the action of living with your aunt is happening currently, while 'I live with my aunt' is a general statement about where you reside. The choice between the two phrases depends on if you want to emphasize the ongoing nature of the living arrangement.
