Questions about Gironde

What is the best place to live in Gironde?

Pompignac ranks first of 100 graded towns of 2,500 or more: schools (A+) and safety (A) are its strongest grades; cost of living (C) is its lowest. Latresne and Saint-Médard-d'Eyrans follow.

How do the biggest towns in Gironde grade?

Bordeaux (267,991 people) grades C overall, with its best grade in walkability. Mérignac (78,090 people) grades B− overall, with its best grade in walkability.

How are these towns ranked?

By the overall grade, which blends six graded subjects (cost of living, safety, schools, health, jobs and income, walkability) from public data, each comparing a town with every French town of 1,000 or more. The rank is among the towns of 2,500 or more in Gironde, where five or more have an overall grade.

Is every commune in Gironde on TownRatings?

Yes: all 534 have their page, listed on this page. Grading depends on size: the 113 towns of 2,500 or more get every grade we can give them, the 124 of 1,000 to 2,499 get subject grades, and the 297 villages under 1,000 have their page with the figures, without grades.

Why isn’t my town ranked?

The ranking covers towns of 2,500 or more with an overall grade. Avensan and Castres-Gironde and Cézac and Galgon and 9 more have no overall grade; their pages show the grades they have, and why.
