San Fiorano, farmland in the Lodi lowlands near Codogno
San Fiorano is a village in the Bassa Lodigiana, the irrigated plain near Codogno, with its centre at about 55 metres and fields, irrigation channels and courtyard farmsteads all around. It is part farming village, part residential: many residents work in Codogno or Lodi, or further away towards Piacenza and Milan.
Among the small municipalities of the area it is one that is growing. Istat, the national statistics office, records 1,879 residents in 2023, up 4.2% on 2011. The average age is 46.1 (province: 45.4), over-65s are 24.4% and foreign residents 4.9%. Declared incomes are above the average for the province of Lodi.
Homes are mainly detached houses and small blocks built around the old core, along with converted farmsteads. If you buy a cascina, budget for work on roofs, barns and systems, and check carefully that past alterations were properly authorised. The public transport database used by the site lists no stops in the municipality, so ask about bus services from the neighbouring towns.
San Fiorano is in seismic zone 3, with an expected acceleration of 0.082 g, like all 60 municipalities in the province. On the plain the more practical issue is water, with channels and a shallow water table, so ask about cellars and basements. The report finds the parcel of the address on the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral maps and checks the official flood maps.
