Oliveto Lucano, in the province of Matera (Basilicata), records no residents from any of the 25 nationalities we track, in the latest ISTAT data. It has a population of 349.

Separately, ISTAT's census data shows 4.9% of Oliveto Lucano's population was born outside Italy — 3.4% outside the EU and 1.4% elsewhere in the EU.

Property prices

To buy

€435 /m²

To rent

€1.50 /m²/month

Buying in Oliveto Lucano is far below the Matera average of €1,099/m². Based on a single OMI micro-zone, so it describes the town as one market.

Buy or rent

24.2 years of rent here equal the purchase price, close to 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.
