HealthHealth C

Bubry’s death rate, adjusted for age and care homes, is higher than in 68% of compared French towns

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

From 2016 to 2025, 432 residents of Bubry died, against 382 expected from France’s death rates at each age: 13% more. Its care home for older people (72 places) counts its residents as Bubry’s; allowing for it, deaths were 5% below expected.
