Buying a home costs less than in most towns: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 3 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Schools are a strength too — brevet results 3 points above the expected rate. Jobs & income is its weak spot — 1.7 jobs per working resident; 13.6% unemployment. It lags on health as well: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 6% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · For family violence, sexual violence, burglary, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, this figure isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the index uses the département’s average instead, 44.2% of the index here. The count covers the offense categories the Safety Grade uses. Crimes are counted in the commune where they happen, then divided by its residents, so a town that draws people in from around can look higher.
