Amblar-Don, two upper Val di Non villages and the land book

Amblar-Don was created in 2016 by merging two small municipalities in the upper Val di Non, Amblar and Don, in the province of Trento. The two villages stand at almost one thousand metres on an upland of meadows and woods, and remain separate clusters, each with its own houses and church.

The population is growing: 549 residents in 2023, 71 more than in 2011, growth of 14.9%. The average age is 44.8, close to that of Trentino (45.4), and households average 2.34 people. Declared incomes are in line with the provincial average.

The climate is zone F, with long cold winters: insulation, heating and the roof are the main checks on any house. For work and services people head to the towns of the Val di Non and towards Trento and Bolzano.

One important difference concerns ownership. In Trentino property is recorded in the land book (libro fondiario), the Austrian-origin tavolare system, and the cadastre is run by the autonomous Province: the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) does not publish cadastral maps for this municipality. The report therefore cannot trace the plot from those maps and says so; for ownership details you consult the land book and provincial cadastre offices, usually through a notary or surveyor.

Seismic hazard is moderate: Amblar-Don is in seismic zone 3, like 146 other municipalities in Trentino, with an expected acceleration of about 0.051 g. Landslides and streams are checked on the official maps for the address.

Landslides and flooding

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Amblar-Don: the report checks the address against the ISPRA maps.

House prices

The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.

Land registry

For Amblar-Don the Revenue Agency does not publish cadastral maps: the land registry here uses the tavolare (land book) system. The report cannot give a parcel reference, but it still checks risks, services and transport at the address and states this clearly.

Liveability area by area

The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 10 inhabited census areas in Amblar-Don. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 62 or more.
