Is Feucherolles a good place to live?

A well-rated place to live, with prices to match. The local economy does well (A): 0.5 jobs per working resident; 7.6% unemployment. It is a safe place by the numbers: an average of 2.5 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. Prices are high against local incomes: at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 8.2 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. Overall, that makes an A, better than 91% of compared French towns. That places it #3 of 91 in Yvelines.

Source: SSMSI (Interior Ministry), recorded crime by commune, 2023–2025 · Licence Ouverte · For family 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, 22.9% 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.
