Rocca d'Evandro, at the northern tip of Caserta province

At the northern tip of the province of Caserta, where Campania meets Lazio, Rocca d'Evandro covers the hills between the Garigliano valley and the Monte Camino massif. The main village clusters around the remains of its castle, while many residents live in the hamlets spread out lower down, closer to the main roads. Cassino is the nearest town for services and work.

The hamlets and the upper village are two different choices. Up top, houses are old and built of stone, on narrow, steep streets; in the lowland hamlets there are detached and newer houses, often with a garden. In low areas near watercourses, it is worth reading the flood maps the report checks for the address, and on the slopes the landslide maps. The area saw heavy fighting in the winter of 1943-44, and part of the housing was rebuilt after the war.

According to Istat, the national statistics office, the municipality had 3,007 residents in 2023, down 10.7% since 2011. The average age of 46.9 is higher than the provincial 43.1 and over-65s are 26.1%; foreign nationals make up 2.5%. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

Rocca d'Evandro is in seismic zone 2 of the Civil Protection classification, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.137 g. For houses rebuilt after the war and for older ones alike, the question is the same: to what standard was the structure built and has it been upgraded. The climate is that of the hills, climate zone D.
