Camerano Casasco, Asti hills north of the city

Camerano Casasco is a municipality in the hills north of Asti, in the Asti Monferrato, with two main settlements, Camerano and Casasco, and houses scattered along the ridges among vineyards, meadows and woods. The village is at around 300 metres; Asti, for work, hospitals, schools and the railway station, is reached by car.

In 2023 there were 396 residents, 84 fewer than the 480 of 2011, a fall of 17.5%. The estimated average age is 49.9 (provincial figure 47.9), over-65s make up 29.5% and foreign residents 12.1%. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

The market consists of village houses, farmsteads and country houses with land, many needing work. Buying a farmstead in the hills calls for some specific checks: which land and buildings are included, whether outbuildings are authorised, how water arrives, where waste water goes, and whether the access road is public or private. In climate zone E winters are cold, and heating costs for a large house should be estimated in advance.

Earthquake hazard is very low: Camerano Casasco is in zone 4 of the national classification kept by the Civil Protection Department, like 113 of the 117 municipalities in the province of Asti, and the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is about 0.040 g. The ground matters more than earthquakes: on the clay hills of the Asti area slopes can move, and the report reads the official maps for each plot.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps and the report finds the land parcel and building from the address.

Overview

Camerano Casasco is a municipality in the province of Asti, in Piemonte. At the end of 2023 it had 396 residents, ranked 85 of 117 municipalities in the province.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Camerano Casasco is in seismic zone 4, the lowest-risk zone, where strong earthquakes are very rare. Most municipalities in the province (113 of 117) are in the same zone.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.040 g, a low 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.

Population

Compared with the 2011 census, the resident population has fallen by 17.5%. The estimated average age is 50 years, higher than the province average (48). 30% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 12.1% of the population. On average, a household has 2.0 members.
