Home to 1,102 people, this town lies in Landes, Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

Is Laluque a good place to live?

Health is a strength: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 27% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. A 70 m² home at the median €2,389/m² costs 6.7 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the Communauté de communes du Pays Tarusate. Where it falls short is jobs & income (D−): 0.2 jobs per working resident; 11.2% unemployment. Walkability is weaker too: just over half of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 2% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work.
