Each edition grades its towns against each other only.
A town of 2,280 in Moselle, Grand Est.
Réding has subject grades but no overall grade: French towns get one from 2,500 residents. Its weakest subject is health (C−): after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 0% above expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Its strongest is cost of living (A): A year’s estimated rent on a 70 m² apartment is 30% of the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality.
Hazard risk isn’t graded in France yet: national flood maps cover only some areas.
Each subject compares Réding with other French towns of 2,500 or more, ordered by how far its rank is from the middle. American and UK towns are graded separately.

Rents are the ministry’s estimates of advertised rents, not rents actually paid.
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.
