Robecchetto con Induno, above the Ticino valley west of Milan
Robecchetto con Induno lies at the far western edge of the Milan metropolitan area, on the terrace overlooking the Ticino valley. The municipality is inside the Ticino Park: from the town you go down to woods, old river channels and paths along the river, which a little further on marks the border with Piedmont. Besides the main village there is the hamlet of Malvaglio.
It is a quiet residential town, away from the traffic of Milan's inner suburbs, with small detached houses, courtyard houses and low blocks of flats. The local centres are Turbigo, Cuggiono, Castano Primo and Magenta, and Malpensa airport is about fifteen minutes away. Milan, however, is a good hour by car, and with no station in the town, commuting to the city is the hardest part.
Istat, the national statistics office, recorded 4,781 residents in 2023, down 1.8% since 2011. The population is older than the metropolitan average, with an average age of 46.8 against 45.6 and 25.3% over 65. Declared incomes are well below the metropolitan average, although that average is pushed up by Milan itself. Services include 4 supermarkets and 4 sports facilities.
Earthquake hazard is low. Robecchetto is one of 73 municipalities in the metropolitan area in seismic zone 4 under the Civil Protection Department classification, with expected ground acceleration of about 0.038 g. In brick courtyard houses, damp, roofs and wiring or plumbing matter most.
The thing to look at is the position relative to the valley. The upper part of town sits on the terrace, while houses closer to the river and canals are in areas the Ticino can reach in major floods. The report checks flood hazard and the slope of the banks at the address, and finds the plot in the Revenue Agency cadastre.
