==Geography== The town is located on a small island at the southern entrance to the Venetian Lagoon about south of Venice ( by road); causeways connect it to the mainland and to its frazione, nowadays a quarter, of Sottomarina. The population of the comune is around 50,000, with the town proper accounting for about half of that and Sottomarina for most of the rest.
