Neighbouring communes are Lumezzane, Villa Carcina, Polaveno and Gardone Val Trompia. In 2011 its population was 13,547.[2] The comune is made of four frazioni (villages): Sarezzo, Zanano, Ponte Zanano, and Noboli, although today these have grown into each other and there is no visible distinction.
