5 of 9 axes measured (56% coverage). No data yet for climate, air, cost, community — those axes are excluded from every score on this page, not counted as zero.

A note on the data
Nearest facility tagged as a hospital is "A.S.L. Pescara polisanitario di San Valentino A.C." — that name suggests an outpatient clinic, not a hospital with an emergency room. Rather than trust it or zero it, we excluded hospital distance from this village's access score and reweighted the rest.
A note on the data
Internet speed here comes from only 13 Speedtest runs. Treat it as a hint, not a measurement — one office with fibre can carry the whole average in a village this size.
Who it fits
Three ways of wanting a village
Each score weights the axes differently. Coverage says how much of that weighting we could actually fill — a score built on fewer axes is a weaker claim.

Needs bandwidth and an airport more than it needs a pharmacy. Will trade services for cheap space and a fast train.

Chasing price per square metre. Tolerates isolation, but a village that is emptying fast is a house that will never resell.
