Melzo, Municipality in Metropolitan City of Milan, Italy
Melzo is a municipality in Lombardy situated east of Milan, covering an area of roughly 10 square kilometers. The town has a suburban feel with residential neighborhoods mixed among green spaces and local commercial streets.
The settlement developed from rural agricultural origins before gradually becoming a modern residential area. In 1952, it received the honorary status of city through a presidential decree, marking a turning point in its evolution.
The residents maintain cultural ties with their Spanish sister city Vilafranca del Penedès, which translates to shared traditions and collaborative programs visible throughout the year. These exchanges shape the local identity and bring the two communities closer together.
The railway station connects the area well to Milan and surrounding regions with regional and intercity train services. This makes it convenient for those who work in the nearby city while preferring to live in a quieter suburban setting.
The area shares borders with six neighboring towns, forming a dense network of local communities around Milan. This geographical position makes it a crossroads where different local areas meet.
