Grumo Nevano, two old villages north of Naples

The name explains how the town came about: Grumo and Nevano were two separate villages, now fused with each other and with their neighbours on the densely built plain north of Naples. Frattamaggiore and Casandrino are right next door and the border with the province of Caserta is close; moving from one street to the next, it is often hard to tell where one municipality ends and another begins.

More than half of the land is built over and there is almost no public green space, so buyers should expect tight streets and traffic. The housing mixes courtyard houses and palazzi from the old villages, built in tuff (the local volcanic stone), with apartment blocks from the 1960s to the 1980s. What matters is the condition of the structure, whether there is parking, and whether any added floors or extensions have proper planning consent. Supermarkets stand out among recorded services (16, above the provincial rate per resident), while cafés and restaurants (38) are few.

Istat, the national statistics office, counted 17,185 residents in 2023, down 4.6% since 2011, or 832 fewer people. The average age of 43.6 is almost identical to the province (43.2), households have 2.66 people on average and foreign nationals are 8.2% of residents. Average declared incomes are below the provincial average.

Grumo Nevano is in seismic zone 2 on the Civil Protection Department's scale, like 76 of the 92 municipalities around Naples, with expected ground acceleration of about 0.156 g. In tuff houses in the old cores, and in buildings with floors added at different times, have the walls and floors inspected before signing. The area also has old quarries and cavities beneath the built-up area, so ask the town council whether the street is affected. The report finds the land parcel on the Revenue Agency's maps and checks landslide and flood hazard for the address.
