  • The population is growing — up 0.79% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • A small village — around 636 residents — quiet by nature.

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 comuneNone — see nearest schools in Daily life & distances
UniversityNearest: Liceo delle scienze umane · 9.9 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.
