Expat Living Italy

One Italian comune's population, foreign residents by citizenship, property purchase/rent price, price-to-rent, verified tax-regime eligibility, its province's rollup, `seismicZone` (the official zona sismica 1-4: a legal classification, not a forecast and not a verdict on any building; quote it with its label and say so — a comune that straddles zones has no single zone, never round it; the zone

Look up Italian comuni by name (case- and accent-insensitive, partial names work) and get each one's 6-digit ISTAT code, province and region — the code get_comune needs. Returns identifiers only, no figures. Several comuni share a name; check the province before choosing.

Which Italian comuni match: region, province, population range, purchase-price and rent ranges (OMI), population change 2019–2025, and/or the verified comuni of a tax regime. Paged (max 100) and sortable. A comune with no price, rent or population-change figure is left out of the filter on it and COUNTED in `missingData` — never treated as cheap, free or stable; say how many were left out. The tax

One Italian province (two-letter code such as AQ, or its slug — a comune's `provinceCode`): population, OMI prices, foreign residents by citizenship (citizenship, not birthplace), ALL ISTAT BES well-being indicators with polarity-aware percentiles among provinces (no composite score), every province- and region-grain map layer, `seismicZones` (how many of its comuni sit in each official seismic zo

For one tracked citizenship (ISO-2 code such as US, GB, DE): the comuni, provinces and regions where its holders concentrate, with counts and shares. It is CITIZENSHIP, not birthplace — foreign-born Italian citizens are not counted — and it carries small-number caveats: the comune ranking skips places under 1,000 residents by default and flags rows under 30 residents (`smallNumber`). A comune with

For every dataset: how many places it covers, out of how many at its grain, plus the source's own coverage caveat. Pass `dataset` (a slug from list_datasets) to list the places that dataset lacks, with the gaps by region. Use it before telling anyone data does not exist for a place, and to explain a null. Missing means no figure, never a zero. Keys a source publishes that match no current place (a

The catalog: each dataset's source institution, vintage (the period it describes), geographic grain, license, the expatliving.it page that presents it, and whether it is servable (false = still an unverified draft; never quote its values). Use it to say what data exists and where a reader can see it.

Each regime's status (verified or draft), whether it depends on place (geographic) or on the person, its legislation, population ceiling and how many comuni meet its verified criteria. Places, not people: not tax advice.

For one regime slug (from list_tax_regimes) and one 6-digit ISTAT code (from search_comuni): qualifies, does_not_qualify or not_assessable, with a one-sentence reason to quote. not_assessable is never a no. This is about the place only; say so, and never present it as whether a person qualifies or as tax advice.
