Living in Torcy

Torcy records 5.1 home burglaries per 1,000 main residences per year and 36.6 street offences per 1,000 estimated present residents (French Ministry of the Interior / SSMSI). These two measures make up Icioola’s safety score, weighted 65% and 35%, making it safer than 60% of all French towns. 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.

The median flat price in Torcy is 3,308 €/m² (from DVF, France’s official record of actual sale prices). Houses sell for around 3,535 €/m². Indicative figure — not financial or property advice.

State middle schools (collèges) in Torcy average 9.6/20 in the written brevet exam (French Ministry of Education, 2025 (annuaire, live) ; DNB : session la plus récente disponible par établissement (2023-2025 selon dépt)) — a score out of 20, not a pass rate. In France, your child’s state school is assigned by home address (the carte scolaire), so check the exact catchment for a given street.

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.

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.

An annual local tax paid by property owners, set as a rate by each town — a real difference in running costs between otherwise similar communes.

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.

The public quality-of-life score and the thematic rankings compare a commune to others of its own size — a village against villages, a city against cities. Your own ranking, and the percentiles shown on a commune page, compare against the whole of France (since 1 September 2026).
