Is Reichshoffen a good place to live?

Strong in places, weak in others. Police record less crime here than in most towns (A): an average of 8.8 recorded violent incidents and 4.2 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · Small counts of armed robbery, burglary, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles go unpublished (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the département’s average stands in, 7.9% of the index here. The count covers the offense categories the Safety Grade uses. Crimes are counted in the commune where they happen, then divided by its residents, so a town that draws people in from around can look higher.

HousingCost of living B−

Estimated advertised rents run lower in Reichshoffen than in Bas-Rhin’s towns or across compared French towns: €11.61/m² a month
