Mogliano, a hill town south of Macerata
Mogliano is a ridge-top town in the hills south of Macerata, towards the province of Fermo. The historic centre, with its walls and red-brick houses typical of the Marche, sits high up at around three hundred metres; below it spread fields of wheat and sunflowers, vineyards and scattered farmhouses, some converted into homes.
Buyers here have a choice between two ways of living. In the old centre, houses are old, often on several floors and without parking, but close to shops and services. In the countryside there are farmhouses with land, offering space but requiring a car for every trip and sometimes substantial work. On clay hills, landslides are a risk to check: the report does so for the exact address, together with elevation and slope.
The population has shrunk: Istat, the national statistics office, counts 4,311 residents in 2023, down 9.7% on 2011. The average age is 48.2, above the province of Macerata (47.2), and over-65s make up 29.0%. Foreign residents account for 8.8%; households have 2.43 members on average. Declared incomes are slightly below the provincial average.
Inland Marche is earthquake country. In the province of Macerata, 6 municipalities are in zone 1 and 49 in zone 2; Mogliano is in seismic zone 2, with an expected ground acceleration of around 0.175 g. For a masonry house, ask whether it has suffered damage in past years, whether repairs were made with public grants and what certificates exist.

For anyone buying in Mogliano, 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.
