Campoli Appennino, the village around a sinkhole near Sora
The centre of Campoli Appennino is built around a large karst sinkhole, a natural hollow that the village rings from above. This is the eastern side of the province of Frosinone, in the mountains above Sora, on the edge of the Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park, which takes in part of the municipality. Around it are woods, pasture and limestone peaks.
Sora is the nearby town for work, secondary schools and the hospital, and from there roads lead on to Frosinone and Cassino. Buyers in Campoli find stone village houses, often on several levels with steep stairs, and a few newer homes on the edges. Winters are cold (climate zone E), so insulation and heating weigh on the budget. Inside the park, extensions and new building follow extra rules, so check them before counting on any work.
Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,609 residents in 2023, down 8.0% since 2011. The average age is 47.9 against 46.8 for the province, and over-65s make up 28.4%. Foreign residents account for 3.2%, and declared incomes are below the provincial average.
Campoli is in seismic zone 1, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.253 g; in the province of Frosinone, 30 municipalities are in zone 1 and 59 in zone 2. For a masonry house, ask whether it has been strengthened, when and to what design, and have a surveyor check it.
The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, and the report reaches the land parcel. In country of slopes and karst hollows, gradient and the official landslide maps are read for the precise address.
