Morsano al Tagliamento, flatland on the river's right bank
Morsano al Tagliamento is a lowland municipality in the province of Pordenone, spread along the right bank of the Tagliamento, Friuli's great river with its broad, gravelly bed. The landscape is typical of the Friulian plain: farmland, rows of trees, small hamlets set apart from each other, and the river marking the horizon to the east.
For buyers, geography comes first. The Tagliamento has serious floods, and part of the territory lies low near the embankments. Before choosing a house or a plot, look at the official flood hazard maps for that address, which the report checks automatically, and ask whether the property has basement rooms. Otherwise the market consists of detached houses with a courtyard, farm buildings to restore and some newer construction.
In 2023 there were 2,681 residents, down 6.4% on 2011. The average age is 48.0 against 46.6 in the province, and over-65s reach 28.3%. Foreign residents make up 8.9%. Declared incomes are lower than the Pordenone average, and the town is in climate zone E, with damp, foggy winters.
The seismic zone is 3, with an expected ground acceleration in the built-up area of 0.120 g. The province varies a great deal: 13 municipalities in zone 1, 27 in zone 2 and 10 in zone 3. Even in a less exposed part of Friuli, in an old house check how the walls are tied to the floors and any sections added over the years.
The Revenue Agency publishes the cadastral maps, so the report reaches the land parcel from the address.
