Casarile, on the Naviglio Pavese at Milan's southern edge

Casarile is the last stretch of the metropolitan city of Milan along the Naviglio Pavese canal, where the countryside south of Milan gives way to the province of Pavia. The village stretches along the canal, with old houses facing the towpath and newer districts that have grown towards the fields and farmsteads.

What draws people here is a house with a garden not far from Milan and the A7 motorway, with the Binasco junction a few minutes away; for commuting, the car remains the usual choice. The market offers terraced houses, semi-detached homes and flats in small blocks. Average declared incomes are below the metropolitan city average, which is among the highest in Italy.

The population is young for Lombardy. In 2023 there were 3,952 residents, up 2.2% on 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office, with an average age of 44.4 and over-65s at 19.6%, against 23.0% in the Milan area. Foreign residents make up 8.7%.

Casarile is in seismic zone 3 of the Civil Protection classification, like 60 municipalities of the metropolitan city, while the other 73 are in zone 4. Expected ground acceleration is about 0.052 g, a low value: in a villa the energy rating, systems and damp, common on the irrigated plain, matter more.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps and the report finds the plot from the address. Between the Naviglio, ditches and irrigation channels, flood hazard should be checked on the official maps for the individual address, as should distances to schools and shops.

Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Casarile: 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.
