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
  • Hospital care is close by — about 1.5km away.
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 2km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR), about 20.1km away.
  • An established international community — 20 residents from Western countries already here.
  • The population is growing — up 0.65% in the latest year.
Depends on you

Nothing notable to weigh either way here.

Working against it
  • A seismically active area (up to M4.9) — a notable earthquake history over the last 20 years. Worth checking the construction date and quality of anything you buy.
