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
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 2.1km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ), about 54.1km away.
  • The population is growing — up 1.38% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • An older, settled community — median age about 53, higher than most Italian comuni.
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 3 places to eat within 5km.
  • Some earthquake history here, the strongest around M4.9 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.
