With an A+ overall, Saint-Nabord is better than 98% of compared French towns. Its place in the ranking is #1 of 27 in Vosges. Where it does best is safety: an average of 1.7 recorded violent incidents and 5.6 recorded burglaries, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and acts of criminal damage per 1,000 residents a year, 2023–2025. Health is a strength too — after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 29% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. The drawback is walkability: just over two in five residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 7% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. Buying 70 m² at the median €1,557/m² takes 4.4 years of the median income per consumption unit in the Communauté de communes de la Porte des Vosges Méridionales.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · For family violence, other physical violence, sexual violence, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, the count isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in a year of the last three), so the index uses the département’s average, 21.4% of the index here. Because that share is over 10%, this Safety Grade is less sure than most. The count covers the offense categories the Safety Grade uses.
