Cavenago d'Adda, rural Lodi plain towards the Adda

Cavenago d'Adda is a municipality in the Lodi area, on the irrigated plain between Lodi and the Adda river, with courtyard farmhouses, maize and fodder fields and channels carrying water to the land. Lodi is close for services and work, and Milan is within reach for commuters.

Homes are mostly detached houses or small blocks, with an old core of courtyard houses and several farmhouses scattered across the countryside. Farmhouses offer plenty of space but almost always need major work on roofs, services and insulation. On a plain this rich in water, with the river, ditches and channels, read the official flood maps for the exact address. Declared incomes are in line with the average for the province of Lodi.

According to Istat, Italy's national statistics office, there were 2,128 residents in 2023, down 5.8% on 2011. The mean age is 46.4, against 45.4 in the province; over-65s make up 23.7% and foreign residents 10.6%.

All 60 municipalities in the Lodi area are in seismic zone 3. Here the expected ground acceleration is 0.074 g, a low value: in courtyard houses, the roof and the ties between walls and floors matter.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps. The report traces the land parcel from the address, shows the local price band and measures distances to schools, pharmacies and shops, useful where the village is small and services are in Lodi.
