Each edition grades its towns against each other only.
Home to 2,031 people, this town lies in Morbihan, Brittany.
The weak point is health (C−): after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 1% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. At €2,625/m², the median price, 70 m² costs 6.6 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the Communauté d'agglomération Golfe du Morbihan - Vannes Agglomération.
