For example: Via Saluzzo 1, Revello.

Revello, orchards at the mouth of the Po valley

Revello sits where the upper Po valley opens onto the plain, below Mombracco with Monviso in the background, a few minutes from Saluzzo. The Cistercian abbey of Staffarda also lies within the municipality, out in the countryside. This is fruit-growing land: apples, peaches and kiwis cover much of the plain around the town.

In 2023 there were 4,180 residents, down a slight 0.5% since 2011; foreign residents make up 10.2%, the average age is 45.6 against 46.3 in the province, and over-65s account for 24.1%. Average declared incomes are below the average for the province of Cuneo.

Buyers choose between the old centre at the foot of the hill, with houses packed together, newer homes on the flat and farmsteads (cascine) scattered among the orchards. For a cascina, look at access, the condition of the structure and whether farm buildings converted into homes have the right permits. The Po runs close to the town: on the lowest ground, the report checks flood hazard for the address.

The province of Cuneo has 141 municipalities in seismic zone 3 and 106 in zone 4, as classified by Italy's Civil Protection Department. Revello is in zone 3, with an expected ground acceleration of about 0.131 g. For a masonry house in the centre, it is worth asking whether walls and floors have been strengthened.

The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral maps are published, and the report traces the plot from the address.

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Revello is in seismic zone 3, a zone where strong earthquakes are possible but rare. The region uses a finer breakdown: here the classification is 3S. Most municipalities in the province (141 of 247) are in the same zone.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.131 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.

Compared with the 2011 census, the number of residents is nearly unchanged. The estimated average age is 46 years, in line with the province. 24% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 10.2% of the population. On average, a household has 2.4 members.

Revello is in climate zone E, with 2,748 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 351 metres above sea level.

How built-up it is

Radon and contaminated sites

Revello 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 Revello, and one more has 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 Revello: 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 Revello are public: from the address the report finds the sheet and parcel number.

Liveability area by area
