Diversity In Italy?

Question

How's the diversity of the population in Italy?

Answer 1

Other than the majority are Italians, you can expect cultures from North Africa, the Baltic or Slavic nations, the Middle East and just about everywhere in Europe. I have no idea what percentage each nationality or culture represents.

Answer 2

As broad as you can believe! I have lived in a village with more cows than people, where the Italian homes often had no hot water or heat. They were very warm themselves, instead. If I got on a train, or drove, for 45 minutes, I would be in a region as cosmopolitan and sophisticated as Manhattan or Paris.

Answer 3

Italy is largely homogeneous in language and religion but is diverse culturally, economically, and politically. The country has the fifth-highest population density in Europe at 193 persons per square kilometre (499/sq. mi). For a country of 58.7 million people, Italy has a smaller number of immigrants than France and Germany.

Since the beginning of Roman civilisation, important ethnic groups like Greek settlers, Germanic and Celtic invaders and plunderers, and Norman French colonisers have all left important impressions on the people today.

The number of immigrants or foreign residents in Italy has steadily increased to reach 2,402,157, according to the latest figures (1/2005) of ISTAT. They currently make up a little more than 4% of the official total population. The majority of immigrants in Italy come from other surrounding European nations, and they number 1,122,276, and chiefly come from Albania, Romania, the Ukraine, and Poland. French nationals living in Italy, according to ISTAT figures, are more commonly women than men. The next largest group consists of North African Arab groups, and they number some 447,310 chiefly from Morocco, and Tunisia. Smaller groups consists of Asians, South Americans, and sub-saharan Africans. Top 5 largest foreign minorities are Albanian (316,659), Moroccan (294,945), Romanian (248,8491), Chinese (111,712), and Ukrainian (93,441).
