La Loggia, on the Po between Moncalieri and Carignano
La Loggia is part of the Turin plain, south of the city, on the banks of the Po between Moncalieri and Carignano. The town has spread in recent decades with streets of detached houses and small blocks of flats, while towards the river there are still fields, farmsteads and green areas. Central Turin is reached by car via Moncalieri or Nichelino, with journey times that depend heavily on traffic in the southern suburbs.
The river is the thing to keep in mind. The Po brings open space and riverside paths, but in Piedmont's recent history its floods have repeatedly reached the towns along its banks. Anyone buying a house in the lower areas or close to the embankment should look carefully at the flood maps and ask whether the building has had water in the cellar or on the ground floor. Away from the river the issue matters far less.
Istat, the national statistics institute, counted 8,724 residents in 2023, up 1.1% since 2011. The town is younger than the province of Turin: a mean age of 45.0 against 47.4, with 22.5% over 65 against 26.4%. There are few foreign residents, 3.3%. Declared incomes are a little below the provincial average, which the city itself pulls up.
In the province 271 municipalities are in seismic zone 3 and 41 in zone 4 of the Civil Protection classification. La Loggia is in zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.059 g, a low value. For the 1970s and 1980s houses common in town, the most useful questions concern insulation, windows and the boiler, as winters on the plain are long and damp (climate zone E).
The Revenue Agency publishes the cadastral maps for La Loggia. The report starts from the address, finds the land parcel and reads the official flood maps at that exact point, which near the Po is the information that matters most.

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, La Loggia 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 0.059 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.
