Yes, you read correctly ! In Sicily, the small town of Bivona, increasingly depopulated, has found the solution to attract new inhabitants. According to CNN Travel, the city is giving tax bonuses to anyone who wants to pay just over a dollar to buy one of the twelve empty and dilapidated homes.
A dollar is therefore all you need to have in your pocket to offer yourself a house in Bivona, provided you invest in repair and restoration tasks. “Over the past 40 years, our population has halved. Today, there are only 3,800 residents, “Bivona cultural advisor Angela Cannizzaro told CNN.
“We want to recover the lost splendor of the greatest era in our history, that of the Renaissance, where 8,000 people lived in Bivona and where it was a flourishing feudal duchy, blessed by Emperor Charles V”, said -she says. Bivona is not the only city that plays on this kind of incentives. In the Italian region of Molise, local authorities have offered up to $ 27,000 to anyone wishing to settle there and start a business.
