Each edition grades its towns against each other only.
The town, home to 1,720 people, lies in Côte-d'Or, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.
Homes are affordable: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 4.6 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality.

It also trails on health — after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 5% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns.
