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 2.3km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within easy reach — Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR), about 42.5km away.
Depends on you

Nothing notable to weigh either way here.

Working against it
  • The population is gradually declining — down 1.11% in the latest year. Worth weighing if long-term services and resale matter to you.
  • A markedly older population — 35.7% are over 65 — which can strain local services and schools over time.
  • A quiet spot for eating out — only 8 places to eat within 5km.
