At its advent, Piodao was a farming community, and that heritage is still felt today, with the main industries of this town being livestock, produce, olive oil, and cheese. The relative remoteness of this village created a microcosm of distinct culture, with an attitude of self-sustainability.
In the middle of the last century, many of the people in this small village began to abandon it, favoring the big cities to the primitiveness of the city. Piodao did not even receive electricity or a road until 1972. It is those who visit this picturesque town that have breathed life back into it.
