Loubeyrat’s strongest is health — after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 28% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Prices are modest for what you get: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 6 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Walkability is its weak spot: 15% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 2% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. The rest of its grades are middling: B− for schools and B for jobs & income.
