The honest read

Working in its favour
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB), about 47.1km away.
  • An established international community — 56 residents from Western countries already here.
  • The population is growing — up 1.3% in the latest year.
Depends on you
  • The coast is close — about 12.4km to the nearest beach.
Working against it
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.

Daily services are searched to 15 km; hospital and beach to 100 km.
