Lherm’s strongest is safety (A): an average of 3.8 recorded violent incidents and 8.8 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. School results are strong: brevet results a point below the expected rate. What holds it back is walkability — 63% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 5% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. It lags on cost of living as well — at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 6.8 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. The overall grade comes out at A, better than 86% of compared French towns. That places it #19 of 85 in Haute-Garonne.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · For other physical violence, sexual violence, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, the count isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in a year of the last three), so the index uses the département’s average, 11.6% of the index here. That estimated share passes 10%, so treat this Safety Grade with more caution than most. The count covers the offense categories the Safety Grade uses.
Schools
94.0% of candidates passed the brevet at the collège within 5 km, a point below the expected rate
Primary schools aren’t graded: France doesn’t publish their results by school.
School results put the town #6 of 91 in Haute-Garonne. The closest lycée for the general bac is 5.6 mi off.
