Questions about Isère

What is the best place to live in Isère?

Le Versoud ranks first of 96 graded towns of 2,500 or more: safety (A) and health (A) are its strongest grades; cost of living (C) is its lowest. Saint-Jean-de-Moirans and Saint-Chef follow.

How do the biggest towns in Isère grade?

Grenoble (156,140 people) grades C− overall, with its best grade in walkability. Saint-Martin-d'Hères (37,695 people) grades C− overall, with its best grade in walkability.

How are these towns ranked?

By the overall grade, which blends six graded subjects (cost of living, safety, schools, health, jobs and income, walkability) from public data, each comparing a town with every French town of 1,000 or more. The rank is among the towns of 2,500 or more in Isère, where five or more have an overall grade.

Is every commune in Isère on TownRatings?

Yes: all 512 have their page, listed on this page. Grading depends on size: the 110 towns of 2,500 or more get every grade we can give them, the 162 of 1,000 to 2,499 get subject grades, and the 240 villages under 1,000 have their page with the figures, without grades.

Why isn’t my town ranked?

The ranking covers towns of 2,500 or more with an overall grade. Cessieu and Chirens and Dolomieu and Froges and 10 more have no overall grade; their pages show the grades they have, and why.
