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 easy reach — Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ), about 21.1km away.
  • An established international community — 56 residents from Western countries already here.
  • The population is growing — up 0.55% in the latest year.
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.
