Locate di Triulzi, trains and farmland south of Milan
Locate di Triulzi lies on the plain south of Milan, along the railway to Pavia, in an area where the fields and farmsteads of the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano, a large protected farming belt, still come right up to the houses. It borders towns such as Opera and Pieve Emanuele, and Milan is close.
The train is why many people choose Locate. The station is on the suburban line into Milan, and the open timetables list 9 stops and 4 public transport lines in the municipality, between rail and bus. For city workers it means the car can stay at home; the report shows how far the nearest stop is from each address, which is worth checking before choosing a house on the edge of town.
Istat, the national statistics office, counts 10,332 residents, up 7.0% since 2011, and the population is younger than in the metropolitan area as a whole: average age 44.1 against 45.6, with 20.2% over 65. Foreign residents make up 12.4%. Declared incomes are below the average for the Milan area, which is among the highest in Italy.
On this plain water runs through irrigation ditches, canals and springs, and some areas are low-lying. For houses near watercourses, the report checks the official flood hazard maps for the address. In the 1970s and 1980s blocks of flats common in the suburban ring, energy rating and service charges are what matter most.
The seismic hazard is low. In the metropolitan city 60 municipalities are in zone 3 and 73 in zone 4; Locate is in zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.055 g. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, which the report uses to find the land parcel.
