The honest read

Working in its favour
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ), about 27.1km away.
  • The population is growing — up 0.57% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • A younger community than most Italian towns — median age about 48.
Working against it
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.
