Angri, between the Lattari mountains and the Sarno plain

Angri belongs to the Agro Nocerino-Sarnese, the fertile plain between Naples and Salerno crossed by the river Sarno. Its land runs from the foot of the Monti Lattari in the south to the vegetable and tomato fields of the plain, and to the west it borders Scafati. In the middle of town stands the Castello Doria, which houses the town hall.

The local economy rests on farming and canning, and in summer the factories process tomatoes around the clock. There is a station on the Naples-Salerno railway and the A3 motorway crosses the area, so many residents work in Salerno, Naples or nearby towns. The town is densely built with little public green space.

Angri is growing: Istat, the national statistics office, recorded 34,095 residents in 2023, up 4.7% since 2011. The population is young, with an average age of 42.2 against 45.2 in the province of Salerno and over-65s at 18.5%. Households are large, 2.74 people on average, and foreign residents make up 3.9%. There are 29 supermarkets on record, 0.85 per 1,000 residents.

Angri is in seismic zone 2 of the Civil Protection classification, like 96 other municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.125 g. Alongside recent blocks there are old houses in the centre and converted farm buildings. Either way, ask for the design date and whether the building has had any seismic upgrading.

Natural hazards also split the area in two. On the plain, near the Sarno and the drainage channels, flooding is the concern; on the Lattari slopes it is landslides and mudflows. The report checks both for the address and uses the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) land registry maps, published here too, to identify the plot.

For anyone buying in Angri, the building matters a great deal: ask for the design year, whether it met the 2008 seismic standards, and whether any seismic retrofit has been carried out.
