Data Scientist Salary in Italy

Data Scientist in Italy: read the median against a +35% outlook

The Italy national median for a data scientist is 78.600 € a year. Among 2 metros with observed data, pay runs from about 51.000 € in Rome to 61.900 € in Milan (1.2×).

Data scientists turn raw data into insight using statistics, machine learning, and clear communication. Common screening skills include Python, SQL, Statistics, and Machine learning.

A modeled national band runs about 48.900 €–114.900 € around that midpoint. Licensing and immigration rules are independent of this cash sort. Employment outlook for the occupation is sketched at +35% over a decade — a national demand guess, not a hiring guarantee in every Italian city.

Milan sits -21% vs the national median; Rome sits -35%. Relocating inside Italy for this title can move cash more than a small raise at the same desk. Open a city page for take-home and rent context — this national page is the map, not the offer.

Italy shows about 1.5% CPI in 2025. A data scientist raise that trails inflation is a real-pay cut even if it still beats last year’s peers. This occupation is also covered in 39 other countries — useful for remote or relocation shortlists, after FX and local tax.
