Sirtori, the hills of the Lecco Brianza

On the hills of the Brianza near Lecco, halfway between Lecco and the Milan plain, Sirtori is a municipality of small settlements scattered among meadows, woods and villas. The landscape rolls and is still green, even though the surrounding area is heavily built up. Lecco is about twenty minutes by car, Monza and Milan about three quarters of an hour depending on traffic.

There is no railway stop in the municipality, so you need a car for almost every trip; in return there are houses with gardens and views in a quiet setting. Property ranges from old Brianza courtyard houses, often split among several owners, to detached homes and small blocks of flats built in recent decades. On the hills the report checks gradient and the official landslide maps for the address; for courtyard houses, check shared areas and rights of way.

Declared incomes are above the average for the province of Lecco. There are 2,774 residents (2023), down 5.0% since 2011, and the average age of 46.5 is almost the same as the provincial figure of 46.6. People over 65 make up 24.5%, foreign residents 7.8%, and households have 2.36 members on average.

Sirtori is in seismic zone 3, like 63 other municipalities in the province, but the expected ground acceleration of 0.055 g is low. For a house from the 1960s or 1970s, the most likely costs are insulation, windows and the heating system.

The climate is zone E in the Italian classification, with cold winters. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps and the report gets to the parcel from the address.
