Nomi, the Vallagarina on the right bank of the Adige
On the right bank of the Adige, in the stretch of the Vallagarina between Trento and Rovereto, Nomi is a valley-floor village surrounded by vineyards and orchards, with wooded slopes behind it. Rovereto is the nearest town for work, schools and shops, while Trento lies further north up the valley.
Buying here means choosing a small, quiet village with few services of its own: for most things you go to the larger towns in the valley, so think carefully about daily journeys. Closeness to the Adige is the first thing to check for houses on lower ground, while those towards the hillside should be looked at for slope and water running off the mountain.
Nomi has 1,352 residents (2023), down 3.6% on 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office. The average age is 46.5 (45.4 in the province), over-65s are 25.9% and foreign residents 7.0%.
The municipality is in seismic zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.110 g. The risk is moderate, so in older houses it is enough to have the ties between walls and floors checked during any renovation.
Trentino uses the tavolare land register, the system of land books inherited from Austria, and the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) does not publish parcel maps here. The report says so and works with the other data available for the address; for the boundaries of the plot, consult the Libro fondiario, the local land register.

Earthquakes
For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Nomi 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 0.110 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 3.6%. The estimated average age is 47 years, in line with the province. 26% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 22%). Foreign residents make up 7.0% of the population. On average, a household has 2.5 members.
Income and climate
In tax year 2024, taxpayers in Nomi declared an average taxable income of 23,949 euros, below the provincial average (25,718 euros). The Italian average is 24,895 euros.
Nomi is in climate zone E, with 2,674 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 179 metres above sea level.

The data shows no grocery shops and supermarkets within the municipality, against a provincial average of 0.8 per 1,000 residents.
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 8.0% of the land in Nomi, compared with 3.1% in the province and 2.9% in the region. In 2024 built-up land stayed almost the same.
Radon and contaminated sites
Nomi is not among the radon priority areas designated by the Provincia autonoma di Trento in 2026. 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 contaminated sites in Nomi.
Landslides and flooding
Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Nomi: 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 Nomi 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 13 inhabited census areas in Nomi. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 62 or more.
