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
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Perugia San Francesco d'Assisi – Umbria International Airport (PEG), about 53.7km away.
  • An established international community — 34 residents from Western countries already here.
Depends on you

Nothing notable to weigh either way here.

Working against it
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.

Counts show what’s mapped in OpenStreetMap within each ring. 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.

Schools & childcarecurrent enrolments, pre-school, school canteen, secondary school (current school year)

Read automatically from the comune’s own website — soft signals of how active the local administration is, not a verdict. Some towns use a shared regional portal, so a quiet site doesn’t always mean a quiet town. See the methodology.

Schools & education

Schools in the comune1 nursery · 1 primary · 1 middle school
3 state · MIUR 2026/27
UniversityNearest: University Of Georgia Cortona · 33.2 km

School counts from the MIUR Anagrafe scuole (presence by level, not a ranking). Universities and conservatories/academies from the MIUR institution lists; nearby university presence from OpenStreetMap. A student presence often means more rentals and services.
