Tax regimes
14 of Lazio’s 378 comuni qualify for the 7% pensioner regime — 3.7% of the region’s towns, but 0.4% 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.
