Is Remy a good place to live?

At the median price of €2,305/m², a 70 m² home costs 5.7 times the median annual income per consumption unit (an income adjusted for household size) in the Communauté de communes de la Plaine d'Estrées. Its strongest is walkability (B+): 89% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 8% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work.

Hazard risk isn’t graded in France yet: national flood maps cover only some areas.
