The picture is mixed. Housing is expensive: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 23.2 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Paris 10e’s overall C+ puts it #17 of 20 in Paris. It comes out better than 36% of compared French towns. Safety is weaker too — an average of 21.8 recorded violent incidents and 28 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. Its best grade is for walkability: 100% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 88% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. Elsewhere it is close to typical: B for schools and B for health.
