Radicondoli: up to €20,000 incentives to move to the Tuscan village

Radicondoli: a plan to repopulate the village

Radicondoli, a small medieval village in the province of Siena set among Tuscan hills, has introduced targeted measures to attract new residents. Facing population decline and a significant number of vacant homes, the local administration launched an incentive package to revive the historic center and surrounding countryside.

Main incentives and measures

The program offers benefits to those who buy or rent property in the municipality, including:

• A grant of up to €20,000 for purchasers of properties within the municipal territory.
• An additional living-cost allowance of about €6,000 to support everyday expenses (e.g., heating, transport).
• Payment of 50% of the rent for the first two years for new residents who choose to rent (measure active until early 2026).
• Municipal funding allocated up to €400,000 to support the program.

Local context and quality of life

The village preserves its medieval layout with stone buildings and narrow streets, surrounded by hills, woods, olive groves and vineyards. The area is also known for local products such as olive oil and cheeses and offers a landscape attractive to those seeking a quieter, nature-oriented lifestyle.

Who may be interested and practical advice

The initiative is particularly suitable for young families and people aiming to move to a small community while retaining basic local services. Before relocating, it is advisable to:

• Check eligibility criteria and application procedures by contacting the municipal registry or technical office of Radicondoli.
• Gather information on local services (schools, transport, healthcare) and expected timelines for any renovation work.
• Plan a site visit to assess neighborhoods, infrastructure and actual costs.

Practical note: operational details and deadlines may change: consult the municipality's official channels or contact municipal offices for the most current information.
