Comiziano, a small town in the Nola area

Comiziano is a small municipality in the Nola area, in the eastern part of the metropolitan city of Naples, on the edge of the Nola plain. Much of the land is built on or farmed, and neighbouring towns almost run into one another, as often happens inland from Naples.

Nola is the nearest reference for services, schools and shops, and Naples for work and larger services. Buyers find multi-storey family houses, often built and extended over time by the same family, alongside newer apartment blocks. For that reason, check planning and cadastral records carefully: added floors, enclosed verandas and lived-in attics must all appear on the documents. Incomes are close to the provincial average.

Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,704 residents in 2023, 7.5% fewer than in 2011. The average age is 46.0 against 43.2 in the metropolitan city, with over-65s at 23.9% against 20.0%. Households have 2.40 members on average and foreign residents are 3.0%.

Comiziano is in seismic zone 2, like 76 municipalities in the metropolitan city of Naples; the other 16 are in zone 3. The expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is 0.183 g. Houses raised by extra floors without a structural design are more vulnerable, so always ask for the structural filing with the regional engineering office (genio civile).

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral maps are published and the report traces the address back to the plot. For the same point it also reads the official landslide and flood maps.

For anyone buying in Comiziano, 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.
