Mori, between Rovereto and Lake Garda, under the land-book system
From Rovereto, once you cross the Adige, the road to Lake Garda runs through Mori, climbs past Loppio and drops down to Nago and Torbole. The town sits on the floor of the Vallagarina valley below steep slopes, and its position halfway between the city and the lake explains most of the market: families working in Rovereto, and people wanting a base near Garda without lakeside prices.
Mori is also where the Adige-Garda tunnel begins, an underground channel that, in the worst floods, diverts part of the Adige into the lake to protect the valley. The municipality also includes Lake Loppio, drained in the twentieth century and now a protected wetland.
Anyone coming from outside Trentino needs to know one thing: the land-book system (tavolare) applies here. Ownership is proved by registration in the Libro fondiario, the land register, and cadastral maps are kept by the Autonomous Province of Trento, so the national Revenue Agency does not publish them. The report says so and works with the data available; for the plot and the registrations, go to the land registry office or a notary.
At the end of 2023 Istat, the national statistics office, recorded 10,208 residents, up 8.0% since 2011. The mean age is 44.8, 22.4% are over 65 and foreign residents make up 8.6%. Recorded services per resident are few, with 2 school buildings and 4 supermarkets: for many things people rely on nearby Rovereto.
Mori is in seismic zone 3 on the Civil Protection Department's scale from 1 (highest hazard) to 4, like 147 municipalities in the province, with expected ground acceleration of about 0.135 g. More relevant for a buyer are the slopes: houses at the foot of rock faces can be exposed to rockfall, and the report reads slope and landslide hazard for the address. Winters are cold (climate zone E), so insulation affects running costs.
Key points
- Vallagarina valley, on the road from Rovereto to Lake Garda.
- Land-book system: maps and land register held by the Province.
- Population up 8.0% since 2011.
- Seismic zone 3; rockfall and landslides to check on slopes.
Overview
Mori is a municipality in the province of Trento, in Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol. At the end of 2023 it had 10,208 residents, among the most populous in the province (6 of 166).
Earthquakes
For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Mori is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. Most municipalities in the province (147 of 166) are in the same zone.
In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.135 g, a moderate value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.
Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.
Population
Compared with the 2011 census, the resident population has grown by 8.0%. The estimated average age is 45 years, in line with the province. 22% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 22%). Foreign residents make up 8.6% of the population. On average, a household has 2.3 members.
Income and climate
In tax year 2024, taxpayers in Mori declared an average taxable income of 25,206 euros, in line with the province (25,718 euros). The Italian average is 24,895 euros.
Mori is in climate zone E, with 2,713 heating degree days: heating may be switched on from 15 October to 15 April, for up to 14 hours a day. The same table puts the town hall at 204 metres above sea level.
Services
In the official Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health lists, Mori has 2 schools and 3 pharmacies. The Overture Maps data also lists 4 grocery shops and supermarkets, 4 healthcare facilities and 5 sports facilities.
There are 0.2 schools per 1,000 residents, fewer than the province average (0.7).
Public transport
We do not yet have open public transport timetables for this municipality: the report says so explicitly, without inventing distances.
How built-up it is
Buildings, roads, car parks and other sealed surfaces cover 7.8% of the land in Mori, compared with 3.1% in the province and 2.9% in the region. In 2024 built-up land grew by 3.3 hectares.
Radon and contaminated sites
Mori is not among the radon priority areas designated by the Provincia autonoma di Trento in 2026. According to the ISPRA map, the estimated radon emission in the municipality is medium. Radon varies from building to building and can only be known by measuring it, especially on ground floors and in basements.
Official databases list 4 contaminated sites, or sites still under investigation, in Mori, and one more has been cleaned up or closed. The report tells you whether one is close to the address.
Landslides and flooding
Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Mori: the report checks the address against the ISPRA maps.
House prices
The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.
Land registry
For Mori the Revenue Agency does not publish cadastral maps: the land registry here uses the tavolare (land book) system. The report cannot give a parcel reference, but it still checks risks, services and transport at the address and states this clearly.
Liveability area by area
The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 89 inhabited census areas in Mori. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 74 or more.
