Elliant’s best grade is for cost of living — at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 4.7 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Health is a weak point: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 6% above expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Walkability is weaker too — just over two in five residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 3% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. The median price paid is €1,771/m².
