In Tuscany, geography, housing pattern, and daily access all shape how furnace and winter should be checked.
Transit proximity is not the same as frequency, route usefulness, late-night service, winter walking comfort, parking, or transfer quality. The important detail is usually in the building file, lease, board documents, permit trail, or maintenance history.
