Currently Montegrosso is inhabited by families of farmers. In the summer period the population, which usually stands at 190 inhabitants, tends to increase due to the large number of summer residences. Farmhouses, agritourisms and restaurants have contributed over the last few years to repopulating the village and promoting its rebirth. The patron saints are Santa Maria Assunta and Sant'Isidoro. They are venerated on August 15th, the day of the patronal feast of the village.

History of the village
The village of Montegrosso was born in the early 1930s at the behest of the Opera Nazionale dei Combattenti. The intent was to populate it with farmhouses to be assigned to ex-combatants. It was completed in the 1950s by the Ente Riforma on an existing village. This was in the past a collection and storage center for agricultural production in the area. Montegrosso, in fact, was an area of transhumance, a junction along the tratturo that connected Ruvo to Canosa di Puglia.
