Le Port-Marly’s overall B+ puts it #35 of 91 in Yvelines. On that grade it does better than 69% of compared French towns. Its standout strength is health — after allowing for care homes, deaths from 2016 to 2025 were 36% below expected, against 12% below for the median of compared French towns. Fewer journeys need a car: 100% of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 41% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. What holds it back is cost of living — at the median price, a 70 m² home costs 9.1 times the median annual income per consumption unit in the intercommunality. The rest of its grades are middling: C+ for safety and B for jobs & income.
