Homes are dear: A year’s estimated rent on a 70 m² apartment is half of the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Its strongest subject is walkability — 78% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 23% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. All told, that adds up to a C overall, better than 28% of compared French towns. That places it #40 of 68 in Moselle. Its other grades sit near the middle: B− for schools, B− for health and B− for jobs & income.
