Corbonod’s death rate, adjusted for age and care homes, is lower than in 61% of compared French towns
Care access and life expectancy are shown for context, not graded.
From 2016 to 2025, 225 residents of Corbonod died, against 144 expected from France’s death rates at each age: 56% more. Its care home for older people (84 places) counts its residents as Corbonod’s; allowing for it, deaths were 16% below expected. The adjustment lowers most towns’ figures, so the comparison is what counts: the median of compared French towns is 12% below expected. The care-home adjustment is a TownRatings modeling step, not an official statistic. A less sure grade: it could be anywhere from C to A−.
