The well-being figures below are for the province, not the town. The rest of this page is comune-level.

Nationality

Acquafredda, in the province of Brescia, is home to 4 Brazilians: 0.26% of its 1,545 residents.

That is the 290th-highest concentration of Brazilians among the 5,872 Italian comuni with at least 1,000 residents.

Within Lombardia it ranks 95th.

ISTAT counts 190 residents with a foreign citizenship in Acquafredda, 12.30% of the population. Among the nationalities we follow most closely, the two groups are Brazilians (4) and Portuguese nationals (4).

That is above the national average for an Italian comune, which is 7.30%.

On ISTAT's well-being measures, the province of Brescia scores in the top quarter of Italian provinces for life expectancy at birth and hospital beds in high-care wards.

It scores in the bottom quarter for burglaries reported and PM10 Annual average concentration.

These figures describe the province, not the town. A comune can sit some way from its province's average.

Summers average a high of 30.2°C (86°F) and winters a low of 0.6°C (33°F), measured over 2015 to 2024.

Acquafredda sees about 42 days a year above 30°C (86°F).

It gets about 1,062mm of rain a year, spread across roughly 115 days.

These come from ERA5-Land reanalysis at the comune itself, not from the nearest weather station.

OMI puts residential purchase prices in Acquafredda at about €915 per square meter in the second half of 2025.

Property prices

To buy

€915 /m²

To rent

€2.80 /m²/month

Buying in Acquafredda is well below the Brescia average of €1,392/m². Based on a single OMI micro-zone, so it describes the town as one market.

Buy or rent

27.2 years of rent here equal the purchase price — above the national median of 22.2 years.

A ratio between two OMI prices, not a return on investment. It leaves out purchase taxes, IMU, maintenance, financing and the months a place sits empty — all of which push the real figure up. Useful for the question it does answer: whether this town looks expensive to buy relative to what renting in it costs.

Condition

Housing here in excellent condition costs 31% more than ordinary condition — €1,200/m² against €915.

That gap is what the market charges for a place you don’t have to work on. It is not what the work would cost you — OMI prices property, not builders.

House or apartment

A detached house here averages €1,125/m², against €915 for an apartment.

Compared street for street — houses and flats priced in the same neighborhood — a house costs 23% more per square meter.

OMI prices “Ville e Villini” separately from the apartments every other figure on this page describes. Nationally a house costs about 14% more per square meter, but in 450 comuni it costs less — worth checking rather than assuming.

Agenzia delle Entrate — Osservatorio del Mercato Immobiliare (OMI), semester 2025 H2. Figures are midpoints of OMI’s surveyed ranges for “Abitazioni civili” in normal condition — a guide to the market, not a valuation of any particular property. OMI is Agenzia delle Entrate’s official range of market values per m², built from recorded sales and appraisals. Asking prices on listing sites are what sellers hope for, and usually run higher.

Seismic zone

Acquafredda is in seismic zone 3. Of the four zones, zone 1 is the highest hazard and zone 4 the lowest. The Department of Civil Protection describes zone 3 as a zone where strong earthquakes are less likely than in zones 1 and 2.

This is the legal classification the Region gave the comune, used for planning and for control of building works. It is not a forecast, and it says nothing about the building you are looking at: since the 2018 building code the design load of a new building comes from site-specific hazard, not from the zone. Have any specific property checked by a qualified engineer.

Not to be confused with the “seismic” routes of the 7% pensioner regime. Those turn on whether the comune was in the 2009 L’Aquila or 2016–17 central-Italy earthquake areas, not on its zone, and being in zone 1 does not make anyone eligible for that regime, or for any tax treatment.

Hospital, airport and daily-needs distance

Nearest hospital: Presidio Ospedaliero - Asola, about 10.3 km / 10 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest hospital with inpatient beds in the Ministero della Salute's 2023 list. A hospital with beds is not necessarily one with an emergency department. Ministero della Salute (2023); positions and roads © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). See every comune on the map

Nearest emergency department: Presidio Ospedaliero - Asola (Pronto Soccorso), about 10.3 km / 10 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest hospital the Ministero della Salute lists in its emergency network (31 December 2025) as DEA level I or II or Pronto Soccorso. A Pronto Soccorso is not the same as a DEA: a DEA is a larger emergency department with more specialties on site. It is not a service guarantee; confirm with the local health authority.

Nearest DEA (level I or II): Ospedale di Desenzano, Desenzano del Garda (DEA level I), about 23.8 km / 19 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest hospital the Ministero della Salute lists in its emergency network (31 December 2025) as DEA level I or II, leaving out Pronto Soccorso sites. A DEA is a larger emergency department with more specialties on site; level II adds the most complex care. It is not a service guarantee.

Nearest airport: Verona Villafranca Valerio Catullo Airport (VRN), about 54.7 km / 38 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest of the airports where ENAC recorded at least 4,000 passengers in 2025; this leaves out two airports that carried almost none (Taranto-Grottaglie, Brescia-Montichiari).

Nearest supermarket (OpenStreetMap): EuroSpin, about 5.8 km / 6 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest supermarket as OpenStreetMap volunteers have mapped it. There is no official national list, so a store missing from the map is missing here.

Nearest pharmacy: Farmacia Podavini Lorena, about 0.4 km / 1 minute by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

The nearest pharmacy in the Ministero della Salute's open register (ordinary and branch pharmacies; dispensari with limited hours are left out).

Nearest railway station (OpenStreetMap): Visano, about 4.7 km / 5 minutes by road from Acquafredda (the main town).

Measured by road from the main town of the comune (its OpenStreetMap place point; the geographic center for the few comuni with none), at free-flow speeds with no traffic. It is approximate. For Acquafredda, a trip from your own address can take longer or shorter. Drive the route before you rely on it, and ask the local health authority which hospital serves the town. Shops, pharmacies and stations are the nearest to the main town, not to your address.
