Safety
Crime per resident in Réalmont runs lower than in 95% of compared French towns
Police and gendarmerie recorded 30 offenses in the graded categories in Réalmont in 2025. Réalmont comes 3rd of the 20 compared towns in Tarn on the Safety Grade. For family violence, other physical violence, sexual violence, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, this figure isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the index uses the département’s average instead, 14.3% of the index here. Because that share is over 10%, this Safety Grade is less sure than most.
