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 — Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR), about 54.8km away.
  • An established international community — 20 residents from Western countries already here.
Depends on you
  • A small village — around 1,012 residents — quiet by nature.
  • An older, settled community — median age about 55, higher than most Italian comuni.
Working against it
  • The population is gradually declining — down 1.36% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 3 places to eat within 5km.

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