Condove, the Susa Valley floor and its mountain hamlets

Condove has two sides. Down below is the town on the valley floor of the Dora Riparia river, in the lower Susa Valley, with its centre, houses from the years of industrial growth and the links to Turin. Up above, along the side valley of the Gravio stream and on the slopes, the municipality climbs to mountain hamlets and summer pastures, with stone houses some of which are lived in only in summer.

The valley is the corridor between Turin and France: railway, motorway and main road all run along the valley floor, and for anyone working in Turin or its western suburbs that is the main reason to live here. The town hall sits at around 380 metres, winters are cold, and in the upper hamlets narrow roads, snow and the distance from services make daily life very different from the town below. The data lists 45 services across the whole area.

There are 4,437 residents, down 5.0% since 2011. The average age is 49.2 against 47.4 for the province of Turin, over-65s make up 29.7% and households are small, 1.99 people on average. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

The Susa Valley is more exposed to earthquakes than the plain: Condove is in seismic zone 3, like 270 other municipalities in the province, while 41 are in zone 4, the lowest. The expected ground acceleration is about 0.121 g. In the stone houses of the hamlets, have a surveyor check how walls, floors and roof are tied together.

On the slopes and along the streams running down to the Dora, landslides and sudden floods are a real issue: the report reads the official maps for the exact address, together with the slope of the ground. The Revenue Agency's cadastral maps are available.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Condove is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. The region uses a finer breakdown: here the classification is 3S. Most municipalities in the province (271 of 312) are in the same zone.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.121 g, a moderate 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 resident population has fallen by 5.0%. The estimated average age is 49 years, higher than the province average (47). 30% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 3.3% of the population. On average, a household has 2.0 members.

The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.
