Robecco d'Oglio, a Cremona plain village on the Oglio

The name says where you are: Robecco d'Oglio is a village on the Cremona plain beside the river Oglio, north-east of Cremona, in a landscape of fields, farmsteads and rows of trees along the canals. It is a farming centre that over the years has added some small industrial areas and neighbourhoods of detached houses.

Commuters have the railway: the village has a station on the line between Cremona and Brescia, and both cities are also within easy driving distance. Homes are mostly family houses with courtyards and gardens. The centre still has farm buildings converted into homes, which need checking for the condition of the walls and systems. If you are looking at a house in the lower areas towards the river, check the flood maps, which the report for the address includes.

Istat, Italy's statistics office, counts 2,264 residents in 2023, down 7.1% since 2011. The average age is 47.8 (province 46.8) and foreign residents make up 12.5%, a presence partly linked to work in farming and livestock. Incomes are below the provincial average.

Earthquake risk is moderate: seismic zone 3 on the Civil Protection scale, with an expected acceleration of 0.099 g. The Po plain has still had noticeable quakes, and in an old farmhouse what matters most is how walls and floors are tied together and the state of the roof.
