Trissino, in the Agno valley between Valdagno and Arzignano
The Agno valley runs down from the Piccole Dolomiti mountains towards the plain around Vicenza, and Trissino sits in its lower stretch, where the valley floor opens out. Valdagno is further up, the tanning district of Arzignano lies to the south-west, and Vicenza is a little over 20 kilometres away. It is a town of small and mid-sized firms and houses with gardens, with the centre by the river and hamlets climbing the hills on either side.
For buyers, the main contrast is between the valley floor, with services, business areas and newer homes, and the hillsides, with scattered houses, vineyards and narrow roads. The A4 motorway junction at Montecchio Maggiore is close by, which matters if you work in Vicenza or towards Verona.
The population is steady: 8,655 residents in 2023, up 0.4% on 2011. The average age is 45.5, slightly below the provincial 45.9; 22.5% are over 65 and foreign nationals make up 7.3%. Declared incomes are a little above the provincial average. Healthcare facilities are more numerous than elsewhere in the province, at 0.92 per 1,000 residents against 0.63.
Earthquake hazard is real. Trissino is in seismic zone 2, like 79 municipalities in the province of Vicenza (the other 33 are in zone 3), with expected ground acceleration in the built-up area of about 0.160 g. For a house from the 1960s or 1970s, ask for the structural plans, any strengthening work carried out and the state of the roof.
On the slopes the ground can shift, and along the Agno floods need to be considered in the lowest areas. Both vary from one street to the next, so the report checks the official maps from the address, together with the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) cadastral parcel.

For anyone buying in Trissino, 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.
