In 1578 it has attested the presence of consuls in Brugherio: they probably existed even for the bigger town of Moncucco. Always in 1578 Saint Charles Borromeo, archbishop of Milan, began a decentralization plane of powers of the archpriest of Monza establishing new parishes: in the cities and in the countryside just outside Monza there was only the parish of Saint John to officiate the sacrament of baptism. The first church that the archibishop turned into parish was the one of St. Bartholomew in June 15, 1578, when he was in Brugherio, after visiting Monza. In the report of a visit of Cardinal Federico Borromeo at the church of Saint Bartholomew, the parish of St. Bartholomew was also included Moncucco, which at that time counted fifty inhabitants. The population, which in the second half of the sixteenth century had grown despite the plague of 1576-77, in the first half of the seventeenth century saw a remarkable arrest due to the return of the plague. In 1648 the manor of Monza was sold by Antonio and Girolamo de Leyva <ref>de Leyva's family held the fief of Monza at least since 1541, when Louis de Leyva was count</ref> to Giambattista Durini and his brothers. The Durini kept the feud of Monza until 1781, when they gave up the jurisdiction because it was too expensive to maintain.<ref name= tribuzio/>
The crisis caused by the Thirty Years' War, the plague, the invasions of the soldiers and the high taxes aggravated the conditions of the populations of Moncucco and the area of Brugherio, bringing the properties to fractionate more and more. This is evidenced by the survey ordered for the new Land Registry by Charles VI of Austria, who since 1721 had contolled spanish territories in Italy. A map drawn in 1721 by the Carolino Land Registry shows the size of Moncucco with Bettolino Freddo, Cassina Pobbia, Dorderio, Cassina Guzzina, San Cristoforo and Moglia (considered all the Court of Monza, but distinct and separate towns, united simply because it was made only measurement), and all the crops present therein.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://archiviomilano.cineca.it/Divenire/ua.htm?idUa=10663561|title=Archivio di Stato di Milano.

Nel 1769 la Giunta del Censimento stabilì l'aggregazione di tanti piccoli comuni sotto Moncucco, nonostante il parere contrario di questi: San Cristoforo, Moglia, Dorderio, Guzzina, Pobbia, Malnido (prima sotto Monza) e Bettolino Freddo finirono così raggruppati sotto Moncucco. A metà del XVIII secolo la popolazione di tutti questi piccoli comuni era di 236 persone, di cui ben 117 solo a Moncucco. L'esiguo numero è dovuto al carattere agricolo della zona, che aveva pochi abitanti ed isolati: l'agricoltura infatti restò sempre l'attività principale di Moncucco, che non possedeva né mulini né attività di mercanti. Si ha notizia di un'infrazione, da parte di Moncucco, dell'antica legge del 1470 di [[Galeazzo Sforza]] che stabiliva il numero massimo di gelsi per ogni cento pertiche: evidentemente la [[bachicoltura]] e la produzione della seta erano ancora fiorenti durante il governo austriaco<ref name= tribuzio/>.
