Lograto, farmland and new homes west of Brescia

Lograto is a village on the Brescia plain west of the city, in countryside of maize fields, farmsteads and irrigation channels that has filled up with housing estates in recent decades. Brescia is a short drive away and is where many residents work; secondary schools are in nearby towns or in the city.

The market consists mainly of detached and terraced houses and small blocks of flats, next to the old core of courtyard houses. Buyers coming from Brescia find gardens and more space than in the city, at the cost of relying almost entirely on the car. Average declared incomes are slightly below the provincial average.

In 2023 there were 3,798 residents, practically the same as in 2011 (a change of +0.1%, according to Istat, the national statistics office). It is a young place: an average age of 43.8 against 45.4 in the province, and over-65s at 20.1% against 22.8%. Foreign residents make up 14.3% and households have 2.55 members on average.

The Brescia area has both seismic zone 2, with 52 municipalities, and zone 3, with 153, on the Civil Protection Department's scale. Lograto is in zone 3, but its expected ground acceleration, about 0.143 g, is among the highest in that band. For recent houses the structural design is what counts; in the old courtyard houses, have walls and floors checked before renovating.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, so the report traces an address back to its plot. On this irrigated plain, it also checks flood maps at the exact spot, which is useful if you want a house with a basement or underground garage.
