Via Cervellino, 103, Oppido Lucano

The cluster lies inland in Potenza province on the lower slopes and rolling hills of the Appennino Lucano (Lucanian Apennines); the 15 km radius is a mix of small valleys and farmland. Land use nearby is predominantly mixed agriculture — olive groves, arable fields and pasture — with patches of Mediterranean scrub and oak woodland. There are no major lakes, large rivers or coastline within 15 km, and no national park or UNESCO site inside that radius. Nearby towns of modest size within about 15 km include Genzano di Lucania and Sant'Arcangelo, which supply local shops, banks, schools and municipal services. The area is served by provincial and regional roads; major motorways and mainline railway stations lie farther away. The local economy is mainly agricultural with small-scale trade and services in the towns.
