Methodology.

Public indicators. Official sources. Update dates.

This page describes the analysis grid applied to every French address: the cross-checked indicators, their source, the five-zone reading structure, and what public data can — and cannot — capture.

— The structure of a dimension

The same structure, dimension after dimension.

03 Noise
62 dB(A)
Sample schema, dimension 03 – Noise. For illustration only.
  1. Definition

    The measure in plain language: what it covers, what it does not, and the official reference threshold.

  2. Reading at the address

    The value measured at your address, set against the neighbouring cell and the municipality. Not a borough average.

  3. Graphical representation

    A figure suited to each dimension. No numerical score, no single grade: each datum is read in its own unit.

  4. Limits of the measure

    What public data does not capture: seasonal variations, isolated events, subjective perception. Blind spots are named.

  5. Sources and extraction date

    Each data-producing body is named, with the extraction date and dataset vintage. Always verifiable.

This structure is applied to every indicator analysed. Each measure is treated with the same care, whether the matter is the building's energy diagnostic or the walking time to the nearest primary school.

— Why this grid

A documentary reading, comparable across addresses.

An apartment is signed at a precise moment, in a notarial office, with documents to keep. This analysis grid is built for that moment: read on screen, compared across addresses, shared with a relative for a second opinion.

The same structure serves Paris, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, Vannes. From one address to another, you compare on equal footing: dimension 03 stays dimension 03, same unit, same extraction date. The reading remains useful beyond a single search.

— Analysis contents

Everything analysed, in order.

Twelve thematic dimensions grouping the indicators, plus the radar synthesis and sources. Each dimension carries its official reference threshold.

03

Noise

Cumulated Lden.

04

Hazards

Tech, flood, classified.

05

Schools

Walking distances.

06

Services & shops

— What this analysis is not

Five things best stated.

  • Not a property valuation.
  • Not a regulatory technical diagnostic.
  • Not a buy or sell recommendation.
  • Not advisory.
  • Not a substitute for an on-site visit.

It is a documentary reading of your address. It complements the offer documents without replacing them. Decisions remain yours.
