NUTS-3 ITH41 · Italy
Pordenone
Pordenone generates €11bn of GDP across 310.7k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 48.3/100 is mid-table of EU regions, led by economic scale and market access. Its economy has grown +3.2%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 2.8pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for health (83.5th EU percentile) and weakest for clean environment (12th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Long-run faller82 → 58 EU percentile since 1995 (-24 ranks)
Yearly EU-wide percentile of real GDP per head (ARDECO regional accounts, constant 2020 prices, derived over population). 50 = the EU median that year; percentiles are scale-free, so decades are directly comparable. See the backtest for what long-run prosperity ranks do — and don't — anticipate.
