The data

Data highlights are ordered by what stands out in Plobsheim.

HousingCost of living D−

Renting in Plobsheim costs more than in both Bas-Rhin’s towns and compared French towns, at an estimated advertised €15.16/m² a month

Rents are the ministry’s estimates of advertised rents, not rents actually paid.

France’s property-sale records don’t cover Alsace and Moselle, which keep their own land register, so the Cost Grade here uses rent alone.
