Tadasuni, a village by the waters of Lake Omodeo

Lake Omodeo, the large reservoir on the river Tirso, is the landscape that defines Tadasuni, a small village in the interior of the province of Oristano. Houses are low, often with a courtyard, and the village sits at around one hundred and eighty metres among hills and open fields. For work, schools and a big shop people go to the larger towns nearby, such as Ghilarza, and further afield to Oristano.

The climate is mild (climate zone C), so heating costs less than in the mountains. What counts more is shade and ventilation in summer and, in older houses, the condition of the roofs and damp at the base of the walls.

The population has shrunk a great deal. In 2023 Istat, Italy's national statistics office, counted 126 residents, 58 fewer than the 184 of 2011, a fall of 31.5%. Over-65s make up 39.7%, against 29.5% in the province, and the estimated average age is 55.8. Declared incomes are below the provincial average.

Earthquake hazard in Sardinia is the lowest on the scale: all 87 municipalities in the province of Oristano are in zone 4 of the Civil Protection Department's classification, and the expected ground acceleration here is about 0.050 g. Upkeep, wiring, plumbing and insulation matter more than the structure.

Near the lake and the streams that feed it, flood hazard depends on where the house stands, and the report reads it from the official maps at the address. The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, so the land parcel can be traced from the house.

Key points

  • Small village inland in the province of Oristano, near Lake Omodeo.

Overview

Tadasuni is a municipality in the province of Oristano, in Sardegna. At the end of 2023 it had 126 residents, among the smallest in the province (84 of 87).

Earthquakes

For Italy's Civil Protection Department, Tadasuni is in seismic zone 4, the lowest-risk zone, where strong earthquakes are very rare. All 87 municipalities in the province are in the same zone.

In the built-up area, the expected ground shaking (peak ground acceleration, PGA) is about 0.050 g, a moderate value: the level with a 10% probability of being exceeded in 50 years, on rock.

In zone 4 the risk is low, but for an older building it is still worth asking about the state of the structure.

Population

Compared with the 2011 census, the resident population has fallen by 31.5%. The estimated average age is 56 years, higher than the province average (50). 40% of residents are over 65 (the regional figure is 27%). Foreign residents make up 3.2% of the population. On average, a household has 1.8 members.

Landslides and flooding

Landslide and flood hazard changes from one street to the next even within Tadasuni: 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 Tadasuni 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 3 inhabited census areas in Tadasuni. Half of the residents live in areas scoring 65 or more.
