Living in Pasian di Prato, on the western edge of Udine, from Passons to Colloredo

Pasian di Prato lies west of Udine, 5 km away: its town hall is 9 min from Udine's and 110 m above sea level, in flat country between 84 m and 126 m. Besides the main village, the larger places are Passons, Santa Caterina and Colloredo di Prato, with the hamlet of Bonavilla.

• Residents: 9,251, 7% more than in 2001; their average age is 48.7, and 8.0% hold a foreign passport.
• Buildings: per the 2011 census, the pre-1971 share of residential buildings stood at 54%, while 9% of dwellings (holiday homes counted) were without a registered occupant.
• Shops and schools: 3 supermarkets and 3 chemists, according to OpenStreetMap and the Ministry of Health; 4 primary school sites and one lower secondary in the Ministry of Education's register; for the upper years pupils go into the city.
• Land registry: as everywhere in Friuli outside the former Austrian lands, there is no «tavolare» land book here (what the difference is).

The other towns: Udine and its ring; against the city itself: Udine or the ring.

Of the 109 municipalities for which the OMI's 2026 regional statistics give the share of homes sold, only 9 beat Pasian di Prato. By number of sales it comes second in the conurbation, behind Tavagnacco (195).

After 2021 the OMI recoded its zones, so a zone-by-zone comparison is not possible. The zone covering the main village still has the same description, though its boundary may not match: in 2021 it gave €950/m²–€1,300/m², today €1,000/m²–€1,500/m². Ranges for ordinary homes in the first half of 2026 matched those of a year before.

• Houses: €960/m²–€1,400/m² for a villa in the main village; in Colloredo and the rest of the municipality the ranges are those of ordinary homes.
• What €200,000 gets you: 190 m² at the median of the three zones, whether flat or house; in the main village, at the midpoint of its range, 160 m².
• ILIA 2026: resolution no. 64 of 22 December 2025 sets 0.85% on homes where you are not resident and 0.70% on the first one declared; 0.46% on a home lent under a registered free-loan agreement to a son, daughter or parent living there (taxable base halved), if the lender lives in Pasian and owns no other property in the region besides their own home (ILIA explained).
• Rents: the OMI puts them at €4.3/m² a month, a 4.9% annual return before tax. After the exceptional weather of 23 July 2010 a prime-ministerial decree dated 30 July declared a state of emergency, and annex A to decree 1/CD8/2010 of the delegated commissioner names Pasian di Prato among the worst-hit municipalities, so on a «concordato» lease the landlord can pay 10% flat tax rather than 21% (town by town).
• First home: €10,500 from the Region, €15,000 before 36, for those registered as residents of the region in at least 5 of the 8 years before applying (the rules).

• Seismic risk: zone 2, like Udine and 108 municipalities of the region in all; in 1976 the shaking here reached intensity 6-7 (Mercalli). For a house older than the anti-seismic rules, ask a surveyor to date its structure and any strengthening (seismic zones).
• Floods and landslides: on the ISPRA maps a medium-probability flood touches practically no buildings, and landslide hazard is nowhere rated high or very high.
• December sun: on the plain, with no mountains close by, the town hall gets 8 h 37 min of full light on 21 December, as much as the sun allows that day (why it matters).
• Climate: ARPA has no station in the municipality; figures from its 1991-2020 grid: 67 mornings below zero, 39 afternoons of 30 °C, and 1,400 mm of rain each year.
• Fibre: fibre to the home (FTTH) reaches 84.5% of households.

• Hospital: on clear roads, 10 min by car to Udine's (A&E and hubs).
• Trains: you leave from Udine, whose station is 8 min away; on 23 October 2026 Udine's board showed direct services to Trieste, Venice, Milan, Rome and Naples.
• Roads and flights: the A23 at Udine Nord in 9 min; flights from Trieste (34 min) or Venice (1 h 19 min); Klagenfurt 1 h 47 min, Ljubljana 1 h 46 min.
• Sea and snow: Sistiana in 43 min, the Tarvisio slopes in 1 h 4 min.
