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 — Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ), about 68.9km away.
An established international community — 96 residents from Western countries already here.
The population is growing — up 0.96% 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.
A quiet spot for eating out — only 1 places to eat within 5km.
