The summary screenshot in case the article was paid, shorter summary (nothing new, except that I didn’t think that big cities had low quality for under 35s):

The children’s quality of life index rewards Sondrio which, compared to the 2022 edition, is the protagonist of a significant leap upwards (the abrupt changes in positioning can be attributed to the inclusion of new indicators) thanks to high positionings in the indicators which illustrate the inadequate numerical and alphabetic competence – which is reduced in Valtellina – and in the Sport and Children index. Ravenna and Trieste are also on the podium, followed closely by Gorizia. Gorizia, on the other hand, guarantees greater well-being for young people, followed by Ravenna, already winner in 2023 and a double silver medal this year, and Forlì Cesena.

The top 10 of this index continues to be covered by the Emilia-Romagna provinces – Ferrara and Piacenza are added to those mentioned – which, as in previous editions, confirm generally positive performances. Trento maintains its leadership in terms of quality of life for the elderly. Which sees a strong presence of the Northern provinces at the top of the ranking, with the undisputed prevalence of three regions: Trentino Alto Adige, Lombardy and Veneto. Among the top ten, in fact, there are three Lombard provinces (Como, which is in 2nd place, Cremona, in 3rd place, and Lodi), four Venetian ones (Treviso, Vicenza, Padua and Verona) in addition to the aforementioned Trento and in Bolzano. Each of the synthetic indices is calculated on 12 statistical parameters, provided by certified sources (including Istat, Infocamere, Iqvia, Siae, Ministry of the Interior) capable of describing the level of well-being in the territories.
