Ciciliano, a hill village beyond Tivoli

Ciciliano is a village in the hills east of Tivoli, in the interior of the metropolitan area of Rome, gathered on a hilltop above six hundred metres around the Castello Theodoli. From the village the view takes in the surrounding valleys and ridges; Tivoli is the nearest town for services and schools, and Rome is a good hour away by car.

Buyers here usually want a house in the old centre or a home in the countryside, at prices worth comparing with those in Rome's commuter belt. Houses in the village have thick walls, stairs and little outdoor space; the streets are steep and parking is not always close by. Winters are cool, climate zone E, so factor in heating and damp.

In 2023 there were 1,253 residents, down 7.4% on the 1,353 of 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office. The average age is 47.6, against 46.0 in the province of Rome, over-65s are 25.3% and foreign residents 8.3%. Households are small, 1.99 people on average. Declared incomes are well below the provincial average, which of course includes the capital.

The municipality is in seismic zone 2 of the Civil Protection classification, like 96 other municipalities around Rome, while 24 are in zone 3. The expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is 0.154 g. In an old masonry building, ask whether any strengthening has been done and with what paperwork, and have the floors checked.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, and the report finds the plot from the address. On the slopes around the hill it also checks the official landslide maps.

For anyone buying in Ciciliano, the building matters a great deal: ask for the design year, whether it met the 2008 seismic standards, and whether any seismic retrofit has been carried out.
