Annicco, Cremona farmland north of the city
Annicco is a lowland municipality in the province of Cremona, in the countryside north of the city, towards Soresina. The landscape is that of the irrigated Lombard plain: maize fields and meadows, canals, courtyard farmsteads and dairy farms, with the village and its hamlets spread along the provincial roads.
For many people work is in Cremona, Soresina or the farms and food businesses of the area. Homes are detached houses, village houses and farmsteads, some restored and many still to be done up. If you want space you will find large courtyards and outbuildings, but for an old farmhouse estimate carefully the cost of the roof, services and insulation: in climate zone E, winters in the fog are long.
The population is down 5.1% since 2011: Istat, the national statistics institute, counted 1,969 residents in 2023, against 2,075. Foreign residents make up 14.0%. The average age is 47.7, against 46.8 for the province. Incomes are below the provincial average.
Annicco is in seismic zone 3 of the Civil Protection classification, with an expected acceleration of 0.087 g. Strong earthquakes are rare on the Cremona plain, but in farmhouses and brick houses the ties between walls and floors and the state of the roof still matter.
For each address the report shows the official flood maps, useful near canals, and the Revenue Agency cadastral maps, which are published.
