HealthHealth B

La Trinité’s death rate, adjusted for age and care homes, is lower than in 56% of compared French towns

Care access and life expectancy are shown for context, not graded.

From 2016 to 2025, 1,133 residents of La Trinité died, against 1,223 expected from France’s death rates at each age: 7% fewer. Its three care homes for older people (93 places) count their residents as La Trinité’s; allowing for them, deaths were 14% below expected. The adjustment lowers most towns’ figures, so the comparison is what counts: the median of compared French towns is 12% below expected. The care-home adjustment is a TownRatings modeling step, not an official statistic.
