Noé’s strongest is safety — an average of 4.3 recorded violent incidents and 9.3 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. Its overall grade of A− puts it better than just over four fifths of compared French towns, #26 of 85 in Haute-Garonne. What counts against it is schools (C) — brevet results 4 points below the expected rate. At the median price of €2,353/m², a 70 m² home costs 6.4 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the Communauté de communes du Volvestre. It lags on walkability as well (C+): 47% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 8% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work.

Hazard risk isn’t graded in France yet: national flood maps cover only some areas. The overall grade uses the other six subjects.
Each subject compares Noé with other French towns of 2,500 or more, ordered by how far its rank is from the middle. American and UK towns are graded separately.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · For vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, this figure isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the index uses the département’s average instead, 15.1% 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.
