Via Palmiro Togliatti, 43, Ponsacco

This is the lower Valdera, a farmed plain and low hill area between the Arno basin and the first inland Pisane hills. The Arno runs north of here in the Pontedera area. The nearest town of size is Pontedera, which has major services, rail links and Piaggio's industrial presence. Pisa is the nearest historic city of larger scale, with the Campo dei Miracoli and the university city functions, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for mixed agriculture, small industry and commuter settlements rather than a single named natural feature.
