None, on the plain between Turin and Pinerolo

None (pronounced roughly NOH-neh, and nothing to do with the English word) sits on the plain south-west of Turin, on the way to Pinerolo, where the Turin commuter belt gives way to open farmland. It has a compact centre, surrounded by streets of detached houses and by countryside that is still intensively farmed, with large farmsteads and wide fields. The Turin to Pinerolo railway runs through the town, which matters for anyone working in the city.

People who buy here usually want more space than they can find in Turin: a detached house, or a flat in a low block. In return, services are those of a small town, and for the hospital, public offices and larger shops residents go to Pinerolo or towards Turin. The report measures real distances to schools, pharmacies and stops from the exact address.

The population is slowly shrinking: 7,688 residents at the end of 2023, according to Istat, the national statistics office, 3.9% fewer than in 2011. The average age of 46.5 is a little below the provincial 47.4, over-65s make up 24.9% and foreign residents 5.5%. Average declared incomes are below those of the province of Turin.

Earthquake hazard is moderate. None is in seismic zone 3 of the classification set by the Civil Protection Department, like 271 of the 312 municipalities in the province, and expected ground acceleration in the built-up area is about 0.078 g. The Pinerolo area is more seismically active than most of Piedmont and small tremors are felt from time to time, so in old brick houses and farm buildings check the load-bearing walls, the roof and how the floors are tied to the walls.

Winters are cold and foggy (climate zone E), so heating and insulation weigh on running costs. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, and flood hazard along the streams that cross the plain is checked for each individual address.

Key points

  • Plain between Turin and Pinerolo, on the Pinerolo railway.
  • Population down 3.9% since 2011.
  • Seismic zone 3, expected acceleration about 0.078 g.
  • Cold winters: insulation and heating matter.

Overview

None is a municipality in the province of Torino, in Piemonte. At the end of 2023 it had 7,688 residents, ranked 45 of 312 municipalities in the province.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, None 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 0.078 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.

Population

Compared with the 2011 census, the resident population has fallen by 3.9%. The estimated average age is 46 years, in line with the province. 25% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 5.5% of the population. On average, a household has 2.3 members.

Income and climate

In tax year 2024, taxpayers in None declared an average taxable income of 24,099 euros, below the provincial average (27,231 euros). The Italian average is 24,895 euros.

None is in climate zone E, with 2,623 heating degree days: heating may be switched on from 15 October to 15 April, for up to 14 hours a day. The same table puts the town hall at 246 metres above sea level.

Services

In the official Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health lists, None has 5 schools and 2 pharmacies. The Overture Maps data also lists 4 grocery shops and supermarkets, 4 healthcare facilities and 6 sports facilities.

There are 0.5 healthcare facilities per 1,000 residents, fewer than the province average (0.7).

Public transport

We do not yet have open public transport timetables for this municipality: the report says so explicitly, without inventing distances.

How built-up it is

Buildings, roads, car parks and other sealed surfaces cover 14.1% of the land in None, compared with 8.6% in the province and 6.7% in the region. In 2024 built-up land stayed almost the same.

Radon and contaminated sites

None is not among the radon priority areas designated by the Regione Piemonte in 2023. Radon varies from building to building and can only be known by measuring it, especially on ground floors and in basements.

Official databases list one contaminated site, or site still under investigation, in None, and 2 more have been cleaned up or closed. The report tells you whether one is close to the address.

Landslides and flooding

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within None: the report checks the address against the ISPRA maps.

House prices

The Revenue Agency's price ranges per square metre (OMI) apply to zones, not to whole municipalities: the report gives the range for the address's zone.

Land registry

The cadastral maps for None are public: from the address the report finds the sheet and parcel number.

Liveability area by area

The Vicinalia liveability index runs from 0 to 100 and looks at the place, not the people who live there: services within walking distance, transport, green space, natural hazards, air, quiet, buildings and connection. Here it is worked out at the centre of each of the 63 inhabited census areas in None. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 72 or more.
