Givoletto, family homes north-west of Turin

Givoletto is a residential municipality north-west of Turin, where the plain begins to rise towards the first pre-Alpine hills. The city is about twenty kilometres away and most residents work elsewhere, in Turin or its suburbs. In recent decades the town has grown mainly with detached and terraced houses and small blocks of flats set among greenery.

People choose it for space: a garden, quiet and cooler summer air than in the city. The price is dependence on the car, since there is no railway and local services are basic. Families will want to check the distance to schools and bus stops, which the report calculates from the address, and the real rush-hour journey time to work.

The figures describe a growing town: 4,091 residents in 2023 on Istat data (the national statistics office), 12.4% more than in 2011, or 451 extra people. The average age of 44.7 is well below the 47.4 of the metropolitan city, and over-65s make up 21.4% against 26.4%. Households average 2.44 people and foreign residents account for 3.1%. Average declared incomes are above the provincial average.

Earthquake hazard is moderate. Givoletto is in seismic zone 3 of the Civil Protection classification, like 271 of the 312 municipalities in the Turin area, with expected ground acceleration in the built-up area of about 0.072 g. For a house from the 1970s or 1980s, insulation, windows and the boiler matter most: this is climate zone E and heating is a real cost.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, and the report finds the plot from the address. Where the ground rises towards the hills and along the streams, landslides and standing water are checked house by house.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Givoletto is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. 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 0.072 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.

The estimated average age is 45 years, lower than the province average (47). 21% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 3.1% of the population.
