Città Alta is an extremely expensive place to live in, with properties being sold for a minimum of 2,000,000 euro.[citation needed]

It is expansive, but not so exapansive!!!! --Aldedogn (talk) 23:52, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

There is no section on transportation in Bergamo. Someone should fix this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.217.149.46 (talk) 16:38, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

A strange event, 1518
In 'The Oxford Book of Late Medieval Verse and Prose' (ed: Douglas Gray, OUP, 1985, ISBN 0-19-812452-X) there is a copy of a letter from Bartholomé de Clere-Ville describing an event at Bergamo (it is titled A Strange event at Bergamo (1518) in the text). The credibility of the story is suspect, but it is an interesting read. Is there a verifiable event on which this account is based? (online copy of letter).

Heaviest concentration on Covid-19 pandemic cases in the world?
Either Bergamo as a town or the NYC metro area (NY state included) has the highest concentration of Covid-19 infections, Bergamo in Feb-Apr 2020 was hard-hit and their hospitals were overwhelmed by so many stricken with Covid-19 in late half of March, now the curve has flattened. Ironically, the "City of a thousand" (Citta dei Mille) had 1,100 cases out of 111,000 people (that's 1%, similar to Madrid, Spain and Tehran, Iran; not sure about Wuhan, Hubei, China where the pandemic originated and since has vanished in their 3 month crisis with lockdown). Bergamo as a province had 10,000 cases and Lombardy was Italy's most infected region with 62,000 (when the pandemic peaked in early April), but 26% of Italians (15 million out of 60-62 million people) esp concentrated in the northern half were probably exposed to become immune to SARS-CoV-2 before the regional and national lockdown since March 8-10 broke the chain of viral transmission locally and across the Italian peninsula. 2605:E000:100D:C571:8921:AB9A:1584:4730 (talk) 21:59, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

Sources on COVID-19 death toll in Bergamo
There are estimates that 0.57% of the local population died from COVID-19 mainly in March 2020. There are now 120,000 confirmed cases in the Lombardy region where Bergamo is based in. We need the right sources to back up the claim so many locals died in the pandemic. 2605:E000:100D:C571:8C36:F847:196F:592 (talk) 23:08, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
