Tax regimes
44 of Pescara’s 46 comuni qualify for the 7% pensioner regime — 96% of the province’s towns, but 45% 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.
