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
  • Well connected by rail — a station about 3km away.
  • An airport with scheduled flights is within reach — Treviso Airport (TSF), about 67.7km away.
Depends on you
  • A small village — around 1,599 residents — quiet by nature.
  • A younger community than most Italian towns — median age about 46.
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.
  • No hospital shows up within reach in our mapping — worth checking where the nearest one actually is before committing.

Read automatically from the comune’s own website — soft signals of how active the local administration is, not a verdict. Some towns use a shared regional portal, so a quiet site doesn’t always mean a quiet town. See the methodology.

Schools & education

Schools in the comune1 nursery · 1 primary
2 state · MIUR 2026/27
UniversityNearest: Consorzio universitario di Pordenone · 21.6 km

School counts from the MIUR Anagrafe scuole (presence by level, not a ranking). Universities and conservatories/academies from the MIUR institution lists; nearby university presence from OpenStreetMap. A student presence often means more rentals and services.
