The street-offence denominator is an ESTIMATE (residents + 0.4 × tourist beds + 0.2 × second homes): the score inherits that, and we say so rather than choose between an incomplete measure and an approximate one.

A few French terms, explained

Price per m² (DVF)

French property is priced per square metre. DVF is the government’s open dataset of actual recorded sale prices, so these are real transactions, not asking prices.

School catchment (carte scolaire)

State primary and middle schools are assigned by home address, not chosen freely. Your street determines the school. Private schools are not bound by the catchment map.

Property tax (taxe foncière)

An annual local tax paid by property owners. Each town votes a rate, applied to a cadastral value set by the tax office — so a low rate does not mean a small bill. The page shows the estimated average amount per home.

Brevet & bac

The brevet is the exam at the end of middle school (age ~15); the bac is the end-of-high-school exam (age ~18). Pass and distinction rates are common quality proxies.

One scale for all of France

The public quality-of-life score, its A–E grades and the thematic rankings score each measure on its actual value, on one scale for all of France (50 = the France level). Size only sorts the rankings (small towns under 10,000 residents, mid-sized towns up to 50,000, large cities above); prices and rents are still compared size for size.

Icioola ranks French communes by your life — budget, household, commute — each scored on its actual figures, across all of France. Data under France’s Open Licence / ODbL (DVF, SSMSI, Ministry of Education, IGN, ARCEP, DGFiP…), with dated sources shown in the app. No personal data, no account required.
