The honest read

Working in its favour
  • Hospital care is close by — about 0.5km away.
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 0.2km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Forlì-Luigi Ridolfi International Airport (FRL), about 34.1km away.
  • The population is growing — up 0.66% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • A younger community than most Italian towns — median age about 46.
Working against it
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 8 places to eat within 5km.
  • Some earthquake history here, the strongest around M4.5 over the last 20 years — worth asking about a building's construction and any anti-seismic work.

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