Tax regimes

17 of Fermo’s 40 comuni qualify for the 7% pensioner regime43% of the province’s towns, but 14% of the people who live in it.

The two differ because the regime caps comune size: the towns it excludes are the biggest ones. Where you’d actually be living matters more than how many towns are on the list.
