About Rimini
Rimini is a coastal city on the Adriatic in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, located about fifty kilometers southeast of Bologna and near the border with the Marche region and the Republic of San Marino. Its population of around 148,700 supports an economy built heavily on summer beach tourism along its long stretch of Adriatic coastline, conventions and trade fairs at the Rimini Expo Centre, fashion and motorcycle component manufacturing in the surrounding Romagna belt, and the University of Bologna's Rimini campus. Direct rail puts Bologna within an hour and Milan within about two and a half. Italian is the working language. The Mediterranean-influenced climate produces hot humid summers and cool damp winters. For relocators, Rimini combines year-round Italian urban life with very pronounced seasonal tourism swings.
