Is Roumare a good place to live?

Work and incomes are strong: 0.4 jobs per working resident; 7.3% unemployment.

It lags on walkability as well — 69% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 6% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. Homes sell for a median €2,361/m²: 70 m² comes to 5.7 years of the median income per consumption unit in the Communauté de communes Inter-Caux-Vexin.
