Pescarolo ed Uniti, farmsteads on the Cremona plain

Out in the countryside of the province of Cremona, among arable fields, irrigation channels and rows of trees, Pescarolo ed Uniti carries in its name the main village and the places joined to it over time. It is a farming community, with livestock farms and cascine, the large courtyard farmhouses of the plain, around the centre, and Cremona is the main reference for work and services.

Houses for sale are mostly detached or terraced, plus the odd farmhouse to restore. The advice for buying on the plain is simple: look at damp in the ground floor walls, the state of the roof and how far the house is from the cattle sheds, which in summer can matter more than the photos suggest.

Istat, the national statistics office, counted 1,524 residents in 2023, down 5.2% since 2011. The average age of 46.9 almost matches the provincial 46.8, and over-65s make up 25.1%. Foreign residents account for 12.3%. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

For earthquakes the picture is uniform: all 113 municipalities in the province of Cremona are in seismic zone 3. In Pescarolo the expected ground acceleration is about 0.089 g. If the house has been extended or raised over the years, ask for the building permits and how the new parts are tied into the old ones.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps and the report finds the land parcel from the address. Flood hazard, linked to channels and ditches, is read for the exact spot.
