Vitality score

Vitality score 50.7/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 43 % of the 4,463 communes of a similar size.

Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.

Measured but not scored in this model: Market. See the methodology for why.

What property sold for

164 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 425,800 € — 3,778 € per m² of built surface. [9]

47 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 230,000 € — 3,571 € per m². [9]

The median across Isère is 2,542 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [9]

These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.
