VR · Veneto
The short version
Sorgà is a village of about 3,000 people in Veneto.
It has a pharmacy and a restaurant, but no shop, doctor or bar — for those you drive.
We could measure 7 of the 9 things we look at in a village. We have nothing yet on the weather and air quality, so those are left out of every score below rather than counted as zero.

Boundaries from ISTAT administrative limits via openpolis/geojson-italy, licensed CC BY 4.0, simplified for drawing. Position from Wikidata. Distances are straight-line.
Getting in and out
Three ways out: the train, the motorway, the plane. Each one leads with how long it takes to reach it by car — ISTAT measures that for every comune in Italy — and then what it gets you once you are there.

Fastest direct train in the published Trenitalia timetable — one train, no changes. A city missing from this list is one you can still reach, but only by changing. Italo is not in the open feed, so on Milan and Naples the real best may be quicker.

How it scores
Each line is one question, answered from measured data and rated from poor to excellent. A low mark does not mean a bad village. It means you would have to drive, or wait, or put up with something.
Fair
Daily needs in the village itself. The basics are here; the rest is a drive
Fair
How reachable the outside world is. Reachable, with some planning
Very good
Is the population holding or draining away. Holding its population better than its neighbours
Poor
Signs of life: bars, places to eat, places to stay. Very little open in the evening
Very good
Fibre reach and measured speed. Fibre nearly everywhere, and fast where anyone has measured it
Poor
Foreigners already living there. Few foreign residents already here
Good
What property actually costs. Around the regional average
Is Sorgà the right one, though?
It is one of 5,664 villages measured the same way. Answer six questions and we will rank every one of them against what you actually want.
What it costs
Agenzia delle Entrate OMI valuation bands for the second half of 2025. These are official valuation ranges, not asking prices, and the courts treat them as indications of broad magnitude rather than an appraisal.
Sorgà against every village we have priced
cheaper than 53% of the villages we have priced
Kernel density over 5440 comuni. The long right tail is the ski and coastal market; most villages sit in the dense cluster on the left.
OMI range for residential
median across 2 zone(s)
EUR 590 – EUR 870
The monthly five
Five villages under EUR 500 a square metre
We hold an OMI valuation for 5,440 Italian villages. 915 of them come in under EUR 500 a square metre — about EUR 50,000 for a 100 m² house. Once a month we send five of them, measured exactly the way Sorgà is on this page.
One email a month. No listings, no agents, nothing sold, one click unsubscribes.

Resident foreigners by citizenship, from ISTAT's 1 January 2025 count. Residents, not holiday-home owners — someone who registered with the town hall.

Not in the village: a grocery, a bar, a doctor, anywhere to stay, a coworking space. For those, you drive.
What there is to do
Not how you leave — what is within reach on a free day. Every distance here is a straight line, and in the Apennines the road is much longer.
The sea
Well inland
112 km away
Measured to open water against the coastline itself — which is not the same as a beach you can park at.
The nearest lift
A trek to the snow
53 km away
Funivia Prada Costabella. A lift or a marked downhill piste in OpenStreetMap. Small Apennine stations open and close with the snow.
Ski areas within reach
Named ski areas in OpenStreetMap, biggest first rather than nearest. Lift counts are aerialways mapped inside the area — drag lifts included, so a number in the single digits is a village station, not a resort.
A note on the data
No sagre yet. Italy has no national open dataset of village festivals — Lombardia publishes one, Abruzzo, Marche and Umbria do not, so for now the calendar of a 25 m village is something you have to ask the comune for.
The honest part
The ages of everyone living here, from ISTAT, carried forward on births and deaths only.
Mean age
46.6
Over 65
26 %
Under 15
12 %
A note on the data
No Speedtest samples within 3 km, so there is no measured internet speed for this village. That absence is itself a signal about how many people are online here.
Who it fits
The same village suits three people very differently, because they want different things from it. Where we are missing data that one of them cares about, we say so — a verdict built on less is worth less.
Fair
Based on 87% of what matters to them
Chasing price per square metre. Tolerates isolation, but a village that is emptying fast is a house that will never resell.
We have not measured air quality and the weather in this village, so this verdict leaves them out.
Fair
Based on 87% of what matters to them
Needs bandwidth and an airport more than it needs a pharmacy. Will trade services for cheap space and a fast train.
We have not measured air quality and the weather in this village, so this verdict leaves them out.
Fair
Based on 83% of what matters to them
Wants a doctor nearby, a hospital that exists, sun, a house that costs less than the flat back home, and other foreigners to talk to.
We have not measured air quality and the weather in this village, so this verdict leaves them out.
Nearby
Closest first, measured in a straight line. They may be over a regional border — a border is not a distance.
