Casaleone, the lowlands of Verona towards Mantua
In the Bassa veronese, the low plain south of Verona, the land is flat to the horizon, and Casaleone is a typical example: fields, drainage canals, farm courtyards and a village about fifteen metres above sea level. It lies in the southern part of the province, near Cerea, towards the border with the province of Mantua. Verona is about forty kilometres away.
People buying here are usually after space: detached houses with gardens, rural buildings and village homes at prices unlike those of the city. The flip side is reliance on the car, since for work and bigger services people go to Cerea, Legnago or Verona. The village has 5 school sites and few pharmacies (0.18 per 1,000 residents against 0.31 in the province); the report measures the real distances from the address.
In 2023 there were 5,610 residents, down 5.5% on 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office. The population is older than the Verona average: average age 47.3 against 45.6, over-65s at 26.1% against 23.2%. Foreign residents make up 10.6%. Declared incomes are well below the provincial average.
Much of the province of Verona (55 municipalities) is in a higher seismic zone; Casaleone is in zone 3, along with 42 other municipalities in the province. The expected ground acceleration is about 0.084 g. For a country house extended in several stages, check that the extensions have planning approval and that old and new walls are properly tied together.
On reclaimed land, flood hazard depends on ground level and distance from the canals, and the report checks it for the address. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, so the plot can be traced from the address.

Earthquakes
For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Casaleone is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. Only 43 of 98 municipalities in the province are in zone 3.
In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.084 g, a moderate value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.
Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.
Population
Compared with the 2011 census, the resident population has fallen by 5.5%. The estimated average age is 47 years, higher than the province average (46). 26% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 24%). Foreign residents make up 10.6% of the population.

Landslides and flooding
Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Casaleone: the report checks the address against the ISPRA maps.
House prices
The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.
Land registry

Liveability area by area
The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 61 inhabited census areas in Casaleone. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 57 or more.
