A solid town with one catch. It is a safe place by the numbers: an average of 3 recorded violent incidents and 6.6 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. The local economy does well: 0.5 jobs per working resident; 4.1% unemployment. At the median price of €2,327/m², a 70 m² home costs 5.7 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the Communauté de communes du Pays d'Iroise. Getting around depends on the car (C): 57% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 5% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. All told, that adds up to an A+ overall and a rank of #1 of 59 in Finistère. Nationally, it does better than 98% of compared French towns.

Not in the gradeTheft without violence, drug use and fraud are shown for information but left out of the Safety Grade, which counts violence plus burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and criminal damage per resident.
Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · Small counts of sexual violence, armed robbery, burglary, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles go unpublished (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the département’s average stands in, 23.4% of the index here. Because that share is over 10%, this Safety Grade is less sure than most. The count covers the offense categories the Safety Grade uses.
