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 0.1km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport (GOA), about 45.5km away.
Depends on you
  • The coast is close — about 10.7km to the nearest beach.
  • A small village — around 390 residents — quiet by nature.
Working against it
  • The population is gradually declining — down 1.76% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
  • A markedly older population — 44.4% are over 65 — which can strain local services and schools over time.
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 2 places to eat within 5km.
