Perrusson’s strongest subject is cost of living — at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 4.6 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. It is strong on health as well: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 20% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Getting around depends on the car: 62% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 7% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. Its remaining grades are unremarkable: B for schools and B− for jobs & income.
