Lusigliè, a lowland village in the Canavese
Lusigliè is a small municipality on the Canavese plain, in the metropolitan area of Turin, just under three hundred metres above sea level. The land is flat, with fields, rows of trees and farmsteads, and the village consists of an old core surrounded by villas and more recent houses.
The population is stable: 552 residents in 2023 and a change since 2011 of -0.7%. It is also younger than the provincial average, with an average age of 46.9 against 47.4 and over-65s at 24.3%, against 26.4%. Households average 2.29 people and foreign nationals make up 7.6%.
People who choose Lusigliè are usually after a detached house with a garden without moving too far from the Canavese towns, which have work, secondary schools, a hospital and trains to Turin. Pharmacies on the Ministry of Health lists come to 1.81 per 1,000 residents (0.35 in the province), and Overture Maps records 3.62 school sites per 1,000 residents. Declared incomes are below the metropolitan average. The climate is zone E, with cold, foggy winters.
Seismic hazard is low: Lusigliè is in zone 3, like 271 of the 312 municipalities in the Turin area, but the expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is only 0.046 g. In a house from the 1970s or 1980s, the energy rating, roof and services matter more.
Cadastral maps are published by the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) and the report links the address to the plot. On the plain, the thing to check is flood hazard near streams and canals, which the report reads on the official maps.

Earthquakes
For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Lusigliè 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 0.046 g, a low 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.

Compared with the 2011 census, the number of residents is nearly unchanged. The estimated average age is 47 years, in line with the province. 24% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 7.6% of the population. On average, a household has 2.3 members.

Liveability area by area
