The honest read

Working in its favour
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Milan Malpensa International Airport (MXP), about 37.3km away.
Depends on you
  • A small village — around 1,845 residents — quiet by nature.
  • An older, settled community — median age about 55, higher than most Italian comuni.
Working against it
  • The population is gradually declining — down 1.39% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 8 places to eat within 5km.

Daily services are searched to 15 km; hospital and beach to 100 km.
