The scores and table refer to the data published by Lombardy Region, on the basis of the indicator &ldquo;of virtuosity of councils in Lombardy&rdquo;. The largest towns to get the best scores include <b>Gallarate<\/b> (70.8), followed by <b>Saronno<\/b> (53.2), <b>Varese<\/b> (45.13) and <b>Busto Arsizio<\/b> (44.35).<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\" class=\"Stile1\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family:\n&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">But what is the purpose of the virtuosity index?

Four macro analysis areas were identified, each containing a number of specific indicators (see the tables in the method, attached). The areas identified were: Area A &ndash; Budget Flexibility; Area B &ndash; Debt and development; Area C &ndash; Programming ability; Area D &ndash; Financial independence and ability to
