Casalromano, farmland at the western tip of Mantua province

Casalromano lies at the far western edge of the province of Mantua, on the upper Mantua plain where the provinces of Mantua, Brescia and Cremona come close together, not far from the river Oglio. Around the village are irrigated fields, livestock farms and farmsteads; Asola is the nearby town for services and shops, and for everything else people drive to Mantua, Cremona or Brescia.

Some figures on the population: households have 2.35 members on average, the average age is 46.0 against 46.4 for the province, and over-65s make up 23.1%. Foreign residents account for 17.3% of the population. According to Istat, the national statistics office, there were 1,482 residents in 2023, down 4.4% on 2011. Declared incomes are above the provincial average.

For buyers, the market consists of detached houses, small villas and old farmsteads. No bus or train stops are recorded in the municipality, so a car is necessary. On a plain of channels close to a major river, the position of the plot relative to water needs checking: the report looks at the official flood maps and the ground level at the address.

Casalromano is in seismic zone 3, like 59 of the 64 municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.092 g. For a house built before the latest building codes, ask for the design and check the roof and the ties between walls.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes cadastral maps for the whole municipality.
