Each edition grades its towns against each other only.
With 7,311 residents, it is a town in Moselle, Grand Est.
The weak point is jobs & income: 0.3 jobs per working resident; 16.0% unemployment. Housing is within reach: A year’s estimated rent on a 70 m² apartment is 34% of the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. It also does well on walkability — nearly two thirds of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 8% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. All told, that adds up to a C− overall and a rank of #46 of 68 in Moselle. That leaves it better than 24% of compared French towns. Health outcomes fall short of most towns: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 16% above expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns.

Rents are the ministry’s estimates of advertised rents, not rents actually paid.
A house rents for an estimated €10.53/m² a month. France’s property-sale records don’t cover Alsace and Moselle, which keep their own land register, so the Cost Grade here uses rent alone.
