The region of Calabria is planning to offer 28,000 euros for a maximum of three years to people who want to move to sparsely populated villages of around 2,000 inhabitants. All this is related to the idea of revitalizing communities where the population has declined.
According to CNN the locations include villages near the sea or in the mountains or both. 
To receive the money, new residents must meet several conditions: - Commit to start a small business from scratch or deal with something that already exists.
- They must obtain a residence permit.
- To be at most 40 years old.
- Be willing to move to Calabria within 90 days of application
Gianluca Gallo, a regional councilor, told CNN that the monthly income could be in the range of 1,000-800 euros for two to three years. Conversely, there may be funding to support the start-up of a new commercial activity – be it a B&B, restaurant, bar, rural farm or shop.
