Bastia Mondovì, on the Tanaro near Mondovì

The name already tells you which town people look to. Bastia Mondovì is a small municipality in the province of Cuneo stretched along the river Tanaro, where the plain around Mondovì starts to rise towards the hills. Secondary schools, the hospital and larger shops are in Mondovì or the other towns nearby, and you get there by car.

Its best-known building is the church of San Fiorenzo, outside the village, whose interior walls are largely covered by a fifteenth-century cycle of frescoes.

For buyers, the land splits between the river valley floor and the first slopes. The difference matters: close to the Tanaro the flood map is the one to check, on the hillsides the landslide map. The report checks both for the exact address, along with the elevation and slope of the ground.

There were 627 residents in 2023, 19 fewer than in 2011, down 2.9%. The average age of 47.2 is close to the provincial figure of 46.3, and over-65s make up 26.5%. Foreign residents account for 11.6%. There are 6.38 bars and restaurants per 1,000 residents, against 5.51 across the province.

Earthquake hazard is low. Bastia Mondovì is in seismic zone 4 of the Civil Protection (Protezione Civile) classification, the lowest step, along with 106 of the 247 municipalities in the province; the other 141 are in zone 3. Expected ground acceleration in the village is about 0.064 g. In a country house the roof, damp in the walls and the age of the wiring and heating matter more.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, so the report can trace an address to its plot.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Bastia Mondovì is in seismic zone 4, the lowest-risk zone, where strong earthquakes are very rare. Only 106 of 247 municipalities in the province are in zone 4.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.064 g, a moderate value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.

In zone 4 the risk is low, but for an older building it is still worth asking about the state of the structure.
