Adrara San Rocco, a wooded valley west of Lake Iseo
To reach Adrara San Rocco you drive up the Adrara valley, a side valley in the east of the province of Bergamo, not far from Lake Iseo. The village lies in the upper part of the valley and the town hall stands at about 430 metres, with woods and meadows climbing the slopes around it. Industry, shops and the fuller range of services are further down, towards the plain and the lake, and you reach them by car.
People who buy here are usually looking for space and quiet: detached or semi-detached houses with gardens, homes in the old core and the odd rural building on the slopes. Before buying, check the access road in winter, the exposure to the sun, which varies a great deal from one side of the valley to the other, and the condition of walls set against the slope. Winters are those of climate zone E. On the slopes, the report reads the official landslide maps for the exact address, along with the flood maps for the streams.
At the end of 2023 there were 807 residents, down 3.5% from 836 in 2011, according to Istat, the national statistics office. The average age is 46.9, against 45.2 in the province, over-65s are 23.9% and foreign residents 11.6%. Households have 2.25 members on average. Average declared income is below the provincial average.
All 243 municipalities in the province are in seismic zone 3, Adrara San Rocco included, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.126 g, a moderate to low value. For a stone house in the centre, find out whether the roof and floors have been redone and how they are tied into the walls.
The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, so the report links the address to its land parcel.
