Is Corps-Nuds a good place to live?

Corps-Nuds’s best grade is for safety: an average of 4.8 recorded violent incidents and 7.7 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. It also does well on health: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 24% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Buying in is costly (C+): at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 6.7 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Overall, that makes an A, good for #27 of 75 in Ille-et-Vilaine. That leaves it better than 90% of compared French towns. Its other grades sit near the middle: B− for jobs & income and B for walkability.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · When other physical violence, sexual violence, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles number five or fewer in a recent year, the figure is withheld, and the index uses the département’s average instead (24.2% of the index here).
