San Mango sul Calore, Taurasi wine hills along the Calore
San Mango sul Calore sits on hills that run down to the river Calore in central Irpinia, the inland area around Avellino, at about 470 metres. This is vine country: the municipality is inside the production area of Taurasi, the Aglianico-based red, and between the rows there are olive groves and fields.
Buyers find a small village whose centre was largely rebuilt after the 1980 earthquake, houses scattered in the countryside and some farmhouses with land. For work, secondary schools and the hospital people go to Avellino or the larger towns of the area, by car. The climate zone is D, with winters that are not too harsh; declared incomes are below the provincial average.
There were 1,106 residents in 2023, down 7.2% on 2011. The average age is 48.5 against 46.2 for the province, over-65s are 26.0% and foreign nationals 4.1%.
The municipality is in seismic zone 1, the highest, like 57 other municipalities in the province, and the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is 0.242 g. For houses rebuilt after 1980, ask for the reconstruction file and the structural sign-off; for older country houses, have an engineer check the structure before making an offer.
The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes cadastral maps for the municipality, and the report goes from the address to the land parcel: for a plot with vines or a farmhouse, it is the simplest way to see boundaries and buildings. Near the Calore and on the slopes, flooding and landslides are read on the official maps for the address.
