Nogara, a railway junction in the Verona lowlands

Nogara belongs to the low plain south of Verona, stretching towards the river Po and the Mantua border. The land is flat and farmed, crossed by ditches and drainage canals, and the town grew up around a crossing of roads and railways: here the Verona to Bologna line meets the one running from Mantua towards Legnago and Monselice. Verona is about thirty kilometres away.

The station is an advantage for anyone working elsewhere, though it is worth checking the timetables, and the main road running south from Verona towards the Po passes through the municipality. The economy is typical of the lowlands, mixing farming, small manufacturing and workshops. Houses cost less than in Verona's commuter belt, and what is on offer is mostly detached and terraced houses and rural buildings.

In 2023 there were 8,308 residents, 3.1% fewer than in 2011. The estimated average age is 45.6 and over-65s make up 23.3%, both in line with the province of Verona. Foreign residents account for 17.6%, a high share, as in many farming and industrial towns of the lowlands. Average incomes are below the provincial figure.

The province of Verona has 55 municipalities in seismic zone 2 and 43 in zone 3, Nogara among them, where the expected ground acceleration is about 0.091 g. On the plain, soil type and foundations also matter: in older houses, cracks and minor subsidence should be shown to a surveyor before you sign.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) land registry is available and the report reaches the plot. In countryside of canals and low-lying fields, flood hazard changes from one spot to the next and is checked for the address.

Key points

  • Station where the Verona to Bologna and Mantua to Monselice lines cross.
  • Population down 3.1% since 2011; foreign residents 17.6%.

Overview

Nogara is a municipality in the province of Verona, in Veneto. At the end of 2023 it had 8,308 residents, ranked 30 of 98 municipalities in the province.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Nogara is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. Only 43 of 98 municipalities in the province are in zone 3.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.091 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 fallen by 3.1%. The estimated average age is 46 years, in line with the province. 23% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 24%). Foreign residents make up 17.6% of the population. On average, a household has 2.4 members.

In tax year 2024, taxpayers in Nogara declared an average taxable income of 23,213 euros, below the provincial average (25,520 euros). The Italian average is 24,895 euros.

Nogara is in climate zone E, with 2,327 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 18 metres above sea level.

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 13.1% of the land in Nogara, compared with 13.4% in the province and 11.9% in the region. In 2024 built-up land grew by 1.6 hectares.

Radon and contaminated sites

Nogara is not among the radon priority areas designated by the Regione Veneto in 2025. Radon varies from building to building and can only be known by measuring it, especially on ground floors and in basements.

Official databases list no open contaminated sites in Nogara; 6 have been cleaned up or closed.

Landslides and flooding

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Nogara: 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

The cadastral maps for Nogara are public: from the address the report finds the sheet and parcel number.

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 69 inhabited census areas in Nogara. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 71 or more.
