The honest read

Working in its favour

An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ), about 68.9km away.

Depends on you

Nothing notable to weigh either way here.

Working against it

The population is gradually declining — down 0.78% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
A quiet spot for eating out — only 8 places to eat within 5km.
