A tough set of grades. Its weakest is cost of living (D): at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 9 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Overall, Caumont-sur-Durance earns a C−: better than 15% of compared French towns, and #27 of 38 in Vaucluse. Where it does best is safety: an average of 5.1 recorded violent incidents and 13.5 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. It lags on jobs & income as well: 0.3 jobs per working resident; 12.2% unemployment. The rest of its grades are middling: C+ for health and B− for walkability.
