Sourced data on Italy's ~7,900 comuni for people relocating or retiring there.

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • get_comune

    One Italian comune's population, foreign residents by citizenship, property purchase/rent price, price-to-rent, verified tax-regime eligibility, its province's rollup, `seismicZone` (the official zona sismica 1-4: a legal classification, not a forecast and not a verdict on any bu

  • search_comuni

    Look up Italian comuni by name (case- and accent-insensitive, partial names work) and get each one's 6-digit ISTAT code, province and region — the code get_comune needs. Returns identifiers only, no figures. Several comuni share a name; check the province before choosing.

  • find_comuni

    Which Italian comuni match: region, province, population range, purchase-price and rent ranges (OMI), population change 2019–2025, the eight shortlist filters (January low, days above 30 C, regional hospital-care score, all three care scores at 60, tourist beds per resident, outs

  • get_province

    One Italian province (two-letter code such as AQ, or its slug — a comune's `provinceCode`): population, OMI prices, foreign residents by citizenship (citizenship, not birthplace), ALL ISTAT BES well-being indicators with polarity-aware percentiles among provinces (no composite sc

  • get_region

    One Italian region (slug such as abruzzo or friuli-venezia-giulia, or its name): population, foreign residents by citizenship (citizenship, not birthplace), `seismicZones` (a count of its comuni per official seismic zone, never an average), the region-grain map layers (healthcare

  • get_nationality

    For one tracked citizenship (ISO-2 code such as US, GB, DE): the comuni, provinces and regions where its holders concentrate, with counts and shares. It is CITIZENSHIP, not birthplace — foreign-born Italian citizens are not counted — and it carries small-number caveats: the comun

  • get_coverage

    For every dataset: how many places it covers, out of how many at its grain, plus the source's own coverage caveat. Pass `dataset` (a slug from list_datasets) to list the places that dataset lacks, with the gaps by region. Use it before telling anyone data does not exist for a pla

  • list_datasets

    The catalog: each dataset's source institution, vintage (the period it describes), geographic grain, license, the expatliving.it page that presents it, and whether it is servable (false = still an unverified draft; never quote its values). Use it to say what data exists and where

  • list_tax_regimes

    Each regime's status (verified or draft), whether it depends on place (geographic) or on the person, its legislation, population ceiling and how many comuni meet its verified criteria. Places, not people: not tax advice.

  • check_tax_eligibility

    For one regime slug (from list_tax_regimes) and one 6-digit ISTAT code (from search_comuni): qualifies, does_not_qualify or not_assessable, with a one-sentence reason to quote. not_assessable is never a no. This is about the place only; say so, and never present it as whether a p

  • list_articles

    Dated, sourced reporting on moving to and retiring in Italy, newest first. Filter by topic, by place (a comune's ISTAT code) or by dataset slug. Each entry has its URL, a Markdown URL for the full text, and the places and datasets it cites. Content is free to use provided you cre

  • get_article

    One article's full text as Markdown, with its places, datasets and a ready-made citation. Quote figures from the dataset pages it cites, which carry their vintage. Content is free to use provided you credit Expat Living Italy and link to the article.

Common questions

Is Expat Living Italy safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.3.0) reached the registry 4 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?
