Grumello Cremonese, farmland between Cremona and Pizzighettone
Grumello Cremonese ed Uniti is a lowland municipality north-west of Cremona, in the irrigated countryside stretching towards Pizzighettone and the river Adda. The name recalls a merger of several settlements: besides the village there are hamlets and scattered farmsteads separated by fields of maize and fodder, irrigation ditches and rows of trees. Work revolves around arable and livestock farming, while Cremona is the reference for offices, secondary schools and hospital care.
With no railway in the village, you get around by car. Buyers find detached houses with yards, newer homes and farmsteads, some needing restoration. With a farmstead, check the permitted use of the rural buildings, the distance from working livestock farms and the connections to sewer and mains water.
Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,691 residents in 2023, down 9.7% from 1,873 in 2011. The average age is 48.5, against 46.8 in the province, and over-65s are 27.6%.
