What Cordenons is actually like
Cordenons, located in the picturesque Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, offers a blend of historical charm and modern conveniences. With a population of around 18,000, it serves predominantly as a bedroom community, with many residents commuting to nearby industrial centers. The town’s cultural life is vibrant, supported by the "A. Moro" Cultural Centre and events such as the Philarmonic concerts and a notable tennis tournament. Cordenons embraces its agricultural roots, balanced by small and medium-sized industries, although it faces challenges from industrial competition in the region. Key attractions include historical re-enactments and local traditional feasts, reflecting the town’s rich heritage. Nestled amidst scenic landscapes, it enjoys good air quality, but the nearest major beach is a short drive away, posing a minor drawback for those seeking coastal relaxation.
How Cordenons is built
Post-war expanded comune
Building age, condition and occupancy from the ISTAT census (2011), by census section. Occupancy is shown as one honest split — the 2011 census does not reliably separate holiday homes from vacant ones.
