Codroipo, Villa Manin and the heart of the Friuli plain
Codroipo's territory contains two names known far beyond Friuli: Villa Manin at Passariano, home of the last Doge of Venice, and the Rivolto air base, home of the Frecce Tricolori, the Italian air force display team. The town is the main centre of central Friuli, on the plain between Udine and Pordenone, east of the Tagliamento river, and by population ranks number 2 in the province of Udine.
There is a station on the Venice-Udine railway. The surrounding countryside is spring-line land (risorgive), where groundwater rises to the surface and feeds small channels and wet meadows, so near watercourses damp and flood hazard need checking. The hamlets are many and spread out, with farmhouses and detached homes next to the fields. Anyone buying around Rivolto should factor in noise from military flights.
At the end of 2023 Codroipo had 15,920 residents, almost unchanged since 2011 (up 0.7%, according to Istat, the national statistics office). It is a little younger than the province, with over-65s at 26.5% against 27.8%, and foreign residents make up 8.1%. There are 23 sports facilities on record, above the provincial rate per resident, and supermarkets are well spread.
The 1976 earthquake left its mark on Friuli, and the province of Udine still has 19 municipalities in zone 1 and 71 in zone 2. Codroipo is in zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.154 g, not a low figure for that zone. For homes built before the 1980s, ask whether structural work has been carried out.
The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes cadastral maps here. The separate land-book system (catasto tavolare) used in parts of Friuli-Venezia Giulia does not apply, and the report traces the address to its plot.

Earthquakes
For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Codroipo is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. Only 44 of 134 municipalities in the province are in zone 3.
In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.154 g, a medium-high value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.
Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.
Population
Compared with the 2011 census, the number of residents is nearly unchanged. The estimated average age is 47 years, in line with the province. 26% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 8.1% of the population. On average, a household has 2.2 members.
