Oderzo, Roman Opitergium on the Monticano plain
Beneath the centre of Oderzo lies the Roman town of Opitergium, and the traces are still visible: parts of the forum and Roman streets have been uncovered, and the archaeological museum tells the town's story. Today it is the main centre of the Opitergino-Mottense, the eastern part of the Treviso plain between the Piave and the Livenza, crossed by the river Monticano.
The local economy rests on small and medium-sized firms, shops and services, and declared incomes are above the average for the province of Treviso. People working in Treviso, Conegliano or Pordenone mostly drive. The old centre, around the square and the cathedral, has flats in historic buildings; around it spread districts of detached houses and apartment blocks, and in the outlying hamlets single houses with gardens are the norm.
Istat, the national statistics office, counted 20,160 residents in 2023, up 0.5% on 2011. The average age of 46.3 is close to the provincial figure, and foreign residents make up 12.0%. Services are good for a town of this size: 15 healthcare sites, above the provincial rate per resident, and 26 sports facilities.
Earthquakes should not be underestimated. The foothills north of Treviso are among the most seismic parts of the Veneto, and Oderzo, although on the plain, is in zone 2 of the national classification, with expected ground acceleration of about 0.146 g. The province has 72 municipalities in zone 2. For a building put up before current seismic standards, ask the seller for documents on the structure and on any strengthening work.
Areas near the Monticano and the drainage ditches should also be checked for flooding. The report does this for the address using the official maps, and uses the Revenue Agency's cadastral maps to find the plot.

For anyone buying in Oderzo, the building matters a great deal: ask for the design year, whether it met the 2008 seismic standards, and whether any seismic retrofit has been carried out.

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Oderzo: 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.

Liveability area by area
