Is Groisy a good place to live?

Jobs and pay hold up well: 0.5 jobs per working resident; 5.3% unemployment. Schools are another plus (A−) — brevet results at the expected rate. The weak point is cost of living (D): at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 10.6 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Most journeys need a car: 51% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 7% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work.

Figures: employment and commuting, INSEE census 2023 · brevet and bac results, Ministry of Education · prices, DVF · income per consumption unit (an income adjusted for household size), INSEE Filosofi · amenities, INSEE BPE 2025. Groisy has no overall grade because safety isn’t graded here.
