The honest read

Working in its favour
  • Hospital care is close by — about 0.8km away.
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 0.6km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport (GOA), about 42.6km away.
  • The population is growing — up 0.88% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • A small village — around 1,826 residents — quiet by nature.
  • An older, settled community — median age about 53, higher than most Italian comuni.
Working against it
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 4 places to eat within 5km.

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