For example: Via Rovereto 1, Cordignano.

Cordignano, below the Cansiglio on the border with Friuli

Cordignano occupies the north-eastern corner of the province of Treviso, where the plain meets the first slopes rising to the Cansiglio plateau and the regional border separates it from Sacile and the Pordenone area. Vittorio Veneto and Conegliano are the towns people rely on for secondary schools, hospitals and work.

The area has two sides. On the flat are the main village, the larger hamlets and the small industrial zones, with detached houses and low-rise flats; to the north the land climbs into wooded slopes with scattered houses and old farm buildings. If you are looking on the hillside, expect narrow roads, gradients and longer trips to shops and services, which the report measures from the address.

The population was 6,862 in 2023, down 3.3% since 2011. The average age of 46.9 is just above the provincial figure (46.0); foreign residents account for 8.4%. Average declared incomes are below the Treviso average.

Earthquake hazard here is among the highest in the Veneto region. Italy's Civil Protection Department classifies Cordignano as seismic zone 2, and the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is about 0.230 g, a high value; in the province of Treviso, 4 municipalities are in zone 1 and 72 in zone 2. For a house built before current seismic standards, a structural survey should be the first item in your budget, ahead of a new kitchen or bathroom. In a block of flats, ask the building manager whether any vulnerability assessment has been done.

On the slopes towards the Cansiglio the report checks the official landslide maps, and on lower ground the flood maps along the watercourses.

For anyone buying in Cordignano, the building matters a great deal: ask for the design year, whether it met the 2008 seismic standards, and whether any seismic retrofit has been carried out.
