Spormaggiore, between the Paganella and the Adamello-Brenta park
Spormaggiore is a village in western Trentino, between the Paganella plateau and lower Val di Non, facing the Brenta Dolomites. Part of its territory lies within the Adamello-Brenta Nature Park, and the village has a wildlife park devoted to alpine animals, brown bears included. The ruins of Castel Belfort also stand within the municipality. Andalo and Molveno are a short drive away, Trento about half an hour.
It is a small, stable community. In 2023 there were 1,258 residents, practically the same as in 2011 (1,259), according to Istat, the national statistics office. The average age is 45.0, a little below the province's 45.4, over-65s are 23.4% and foreign residents 9.7%. Households have 2.33 people on average. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.
Buyers should know one thing straight away. Trentino uses the tavolare system: ownership and mortgages are recorded in the Libro fondiario (land book), and the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) does not publish cadastral maps for these municipalities. The report therefore does not show the plot and explains why; for the legal position you need land book searches, which the notary will request in any case.
Seismic hazard is low: Spormaggiore is in zone 3 of the Civil Protection classification with 146 other municipalities in Trentino, and an expected acceleration of 0.056 g. Cold winters matter more (climate zone F): insulation, windows and the heating system make the difference to running costs.
On a mountain slope the report is still useful for landslides, flooding, elevation and distances to services, all read for the individual address.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.056 g, a moderate value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.
Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.

Landslides and flooding
Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Spormaggiore: the report checks the address against the ISPRA maps.
House prices
The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.
Land registry
For Spormaggiore the Revenue Agency does not publish cadastral maps: the land registry here uses the tavolare (land book) system. The report cannot give a parcel reference, but it still checks risks, services and transport at the address and states this clearly.
Liveability area by area
The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 17 inhabited census areas in Spormaggiore. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 65 or more.
