Cost of living is its strong suit: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 3.5 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. People here tend to be in good health: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 27% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. The weak point is schools: bac results 0.9 points below the expected rate; brevet results at the expected rate.
