According to the results of the national census made in 1991 Anzano di Puglia had a population of 2,239 inhabitants (Anzanesi), a surface of 11.12 square kilometres (4.29 sq mi) and a population density of 201.3 inhabitants per square kilometer. It rises 760 metres (2,490 ft) above sea level. By 2008 the population had fallen to 1,972.
Anzano's geographical position has led to its possession changing several times over the centuries. At some times it has been in Apulia, at others in Campania. In 1810, when it belonged to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, it was made part of the province of Foggia. In 1862 it was absorbed by the province of Avellino and was renamed "Anzano degli Irpini". In 1931 it returned to the province of Foggia.
It is located at the intersecrtion of two ancient Roman roads, namely Via Erculea and Via Aurelia Haeclansis, which leads to Herdonias (Ordona).
