Torri di Quartesolo, on the eastern edge of Vicenza
Torri di Quartesolo borders Vicenza to the east and in practice works as an extension of the city. The Vicenza Est junction of the A4 motorway is within its boundaries, and shopping centres, warehouses and large stores have grown up around it, drawing people from across the province. The rest is flat land crossed by the river Tesina, with the main village and the hamlets of Lerino and Marola.
People buy here to be close to Vicenza with the prices and space of a smaller place. The stock is mainly detached and terraced houses and blocks of flats of three or four storeys, most of them built from the 1970s onwards. Look at where the house sits in relation to the through roads and the retail area: a few hundred metres can make a big difference to traffic and noise.
Istat, the national statistics office, counted 11,762 residents in 2023, almost exactly the same as in 2011 (11,755). The population is younger than average: an estimated average age of 45.2 against 45.9 in the province, and over-65s at 21.3% against 23.4%. Foreign residents make up 9.3%. Sports facilities and healthcare services are denser than in the rest of the province, at 1.62 and 0.85 per 1,000 residents.
The province of Vicenza has 79 municipalities in seismic zone 2, along the foothills and in the valleys. Torri di Quartesolo is one of the 33 in zone 3 of the Civil Protection Department's scale, with expected ground acceleration of about 0.135 g. For a flat in a block, what counts most is the condition of the building, the service charges and the energy rating.
The Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes the cadastral maps, and the report identifies the plot from the address. On a plain crossed by the Tesina and close to the Bacchiglione, the thing to check is flood hazard, which depends on the exact position relative to the rivers and their embankments.

Even in zone 3, seismic standards apply to new buildings: for an older building, ask about the design year and any structural work.
