Is Solliès-Toucas a good place to live?

Some subjects shine; others lag. Safety is its strong suit: an average of 3 recorded violent incidents and 11.7 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. Solliès-Toucas ranks #5 of 73 in Var, with a B overall. It comes out better than 56% of compared French towns. Health is a strength: after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 24% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. The drawback is cost of living — at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 9.9 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. The rest of its grades are middling: B for jobs & income and C+ for walkability.
