Cremosano, on the doorstep of Crema

Cremosano is a small municipality in the Cremasco, just north of Crema, on the irrigated plain between the Serio and Adda rivers. For many residents Crema is where daily life happens: secondary schools, hospital, railway station and shops. The village has a compact old core and a newer part made up mostly of detached houses and small apartment blocks.

The population is growing. Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,720 residents in 2023, up 8.9% on the 1,580 of 2011. It is also younger than the rest of the province: an average age of 44.0 against 46.8, and over-65s at 20.2% against 25.3%. Households have 2.37 members on average and foreign residents are 4.0%. Incomes are in line with the provincial average.

Buyers here are often after a house with a garden a few minutes from Crema. In newer buildings, look at the energy rating, the systems and any shared costs; in older houses in the village core, check for rising damp and the condition of the walls.

All 113 municipalities in the province of Cremona are in seismic zone 3. In Cremosano the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is 0.089 g, a low value. Build quality and maintenance count for more in a purchase.
