Druillat’s death rate, adjusted for age and care homes, is lower than in 51% of compared French towns

Care access and life expectancy are shown for context, not graded.

From 2016 to 2025, 96 residents of Druillat died, against 110 expected from France’s death rates at each age: 12% fewer. The adjustment lowers most towns’ figures, so the comparison is what counts: the median of compared French towns is 12% below expected.
