There are 33,863 residents in the district of people that are the 27.88% of the total population and their average age is 44 years while the proportion of people aged over 65 years 22.51%. District 4 is the most populous of all the districts of Monza, the adjacent district of San Biagio, San Giuseppe, and San Fruttuoso (Monza) and is crossed by Canale Villoresi.

The main streets of the district are: Via Felice Cavallotti (one of the main arteries linking the Old Town) Via Vittorio Veneto (the road connecting the Via Cavallotti and SS36) and Via Monte Cervino, famous for its many green spaces.

The name of the district derives from the Cascina Triante located at the center of the neighborhood, which was equipped with three entries (in dialect: Triant). Since then the post-war period, the Cascina was demolished and thence forward in its place stands a bank. The District of Triante is one of the most famous of the city, in addition to the geographical position in the area there are several residential buildings, banks and shops, a multiplex cinema and a parish, bicycle lanes, three public schools and many local nightclubs that of daytime.

Degradation

The neighborhood in recent years has encountered numerous problems associated with the use of prostitution, this phenomenon has occurred in the district for its proximity to the Avenue Lombardia (known as SS36), affecting not only the area of the Avenue in question but also the streets adjacent to it: Duca d'Aosta, Andrea Doria, Vittorio Veneto and Carlo Emanuele I.

In the fall of 2008, the municipality of Monza adopted restrictive measures to combat this problem, installing cameras in the areas concerned, in order to discourage the customers of fireflies and reduce the risk of wrongful discharge of waste.
