Scores are 0–10, computed only from factors we have data for; coverage shows how complete that is. A low score means a poor fit for that group’s needs, not a bad town. Tap an audience to see what drove its score.

The honest read

Working in its favour
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 1.6km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Pisa International Airport (PSA), about 60km away.
  • An established international community — 41 residents from Western countries already here.
Depends on you
  • The coast is close — about 12.9km to the nearest beach.
  • A small village — around 901 residents — quiet by nature.
Working against it
  • The population is gradually declining — down 1.21% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
  • A markedly older population — 41.4% are over 65 — which can strain local services and schools over time.
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 8 places to eat within 5km.
  • A seismically active area (up to M5.1) — a notable earthquake history over the last 20 years. Worth checking the construction date and quality of anything you buy.

Where little is close, the nearest few are listed with an estimated drive time (a guide, not a measured route; typically ~1.5× the straight-line distance at rural speeds). Daily services are searched to 15 km; hospital and beach to 100 km.
