Ubiale Clanezzo, two villages at the mouth of the Brembana valley

The name tells you how the place is made: Ubiale and Clanezzo are two separate villages joined in one municipality, at the mouth of the Valle Brembana north of Bergamo. Here the Brembo river still runs between wooded slopes before it reaches the plain, and Bergamo is less than half an hour away by car along the valley road.

It suits commuters who would rather have woods than suburbs. There are 1,304 residents (2023 figure), down 6.8% on 2011. The average age is 46.3, slightly above the provincial 45.2; over-65s are 23.2% and foreign residents 1.7%. Declared incomes sit a little below the Bergamo average.

Homes for sale are mostly stone buildings in the old cores, plus detached and terraced houses built on the slopes. Where a house sits on the hillside matters a lot: winter sun, narrow steep lanes, access when it snows. Winters are cold (climate zone E), so heating is a real cost. Shops in the village are few, and for a pharmacy or a big food shop people head down the valley or towards Bergamo.

The seismic picture is the same across the province: all 243 municipalities in Bergamo province are in seismic zone 3, and the expected ground acceleration here is 0.090 g. With an old stone house it is still worth having the roof, floors and wall connections checked.

Using the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral maps, the report works back from the address to the land parcel. Near the river and on steep slopes, landslide and flood hazards are checked on the official maps, address by address.
