Olevano di Lomellina, a lowland village with a station

Olevano di Lomellina is a small municipality on the Pavia plain, in the Lomellina, the western part of the province between the Sesia, the Po and the Ticino. The landscape is one of irrigated fields, farmsteads and canals, with the village gathered around its church and old centre. For the main services people go to the larger towns of the Lomellina.

A plus for anyone who works elsewhere is the railway: the village has its own station served by regional trains, and for each address the report shows how far it is to walk there. Properties are detached houses, courtyard houses and some farm buildings to restore. On the plain, water is the thing to look at: irrigation channels, ditches and canals can change the picture from one house to the next, and the official flood maps are read for the address.

In 2023 there were 697 residents, down 11.0% on the 2011 census. The average age is 48.8 against 47.1 in the province of Pavia, over-65s make up 26.0% and households have 2.25 people on average. Foreign residents account for 13.9%. Average declared income is below the provincial level.

The province of Pavia is split between two seismic zones of the Civil Protection (Protezione Civile) classification: 157 municipalities in zone 3 and 27 in zone 4. Olevano is in zone 4, the lowest, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.043 g. In a country house the real costs are the roof, rising damp, insulation, heating and wiring.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes Olevano's cadastral maps: from the address the report finds the land parcel and building, which helps in courtyards shared by several owners.
