Alonte, at the foot of the Berici Hills near Lonigo

Alonte lies in the lower Vicenza area, where the plain meets the southern slopes of the Colli Berici, a short distance from Lonigo. It is a small village in a district with plenty of firms, and by car you can reach Vicenza, Verona and the industrial belt of western Vicenza province. The hills behind have vineyards and woods; the lower part is farmland with more building on it.

Buyers mainly find detached and semi-detached houses from recent decades, along with old farmhouses in the hamlets on the hillside. On the plain it pays to check the official flood maps, on the slopes the gradient: the report does both for the address.

Istat, the national statistics office, counts 1,564 residents in 2023, 5.0% fewer than in 2011. The population is young for the area: an average age of 44.0 against 45.9 in the province, with over-65s at 18.3%. Households average 2.52 people, and foreign residents make up 4.7%. Declared incomes are above the provincial average.

In the province of Vicenza 79 municipalities are in seismic zone 2 and 33 in zone 3. Alonte falls in zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.114 g. For a house built before the 1980s, find out how the floors and roof are built and whether any structural changes have been made.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes Alonte's cadastral maps, which the report uses to trace the land parcel.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Alonte is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. Only 33 of 112 municipalities in the province are in zone 3.

Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.

Liveability area by area

The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 12 inhabited census areas in Alonte. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 58 or more.
