Too few sales for an annual price. With 1 sales in 2025, a median price would describe a handful of properties, not a market: it is only published from five sales in the year.
How to read these figures. The median price splits the market in two: half of sales were made below it, half above. It withstands the few extreme sales that distort a small commune better than the average does.
The data come from DVF, the file of sales actually recorded by notaries, not from advertised prices, which are asking prices rather than agreed ones. Only sales of a flat or a house with a known floor area are counted. DVF does not cover Alsace-Moselle, which is governed by the land register (livre foncier).

Rents
Reference rents (2025)
| Property type | Median rent (€/m²) | Range (€/m²) |
|---|---|---|
| Flats, all sizes | 8.2 | 6.3 – 10.8 |
| Flats with 1-2 rooms | 8.3 | 6.4 – 10.7 |
| Flats with 3 or more rooms | 6.3 | 4.9 – 8.1 |
| Houses | 7.1 | 5.3 – 9.6 |
How to read this table. This is a predicted advertised rent, including service charges, per square metre per month — not the rent signed in the lease. The range brackets the estimate: most listings in the municipality fall within it. These estimates are recalculated every year with a new model, so two releases cannot be compared with each other.

Energy performance of the housing stock
Breakdown of homes in Chavagnac by energy performance certificate (EPC) band. Since the loi Climat & Résilience (Climate and Resilience Act), it is this band that determines whether a home may be let.

3 homes surveyed. 33.3% of the surveyed housing stock is rated F or G — that is 1 homes already affected, or about to be, by the letting ban. Including band E, targeted for 2034, the share rises to 66.7%.

Why this breakdown matters. A dwelling rated G can no longer be let under a new lease since 1st January 2025; F will follow in 2028 and E in 2034. A commune whose stock is largely rated F or G therefore faces a wall of renovation work, or an exit from the rental market.
Note: these figures cover surveyed homes, not the entire stock. A survey is only required on sale or letting, so homes occupied for a long time are under-represented.

Why the number of people per household matters. A household is everyone who shares the same dwelling. The fewer people it has, the more demand shifts towards small homes — studios and one-bedroom flats, sought by people living alone, students and retirees; the more it has, the more demand shifts towards family homes with three or more rooms.
In Chavagnac, a household has 2.08 people on average, compared with 2.17 in France: more people living alone and couples without children, so demand leans more towards small units.

How to read these figures. The standard of living is a household's disposable income (salaries, pensions and benefits, after tax) divided by its number of consumption units: the first adult counts as 1, other people aged 14 or over as 0.5, and each child as 0.3. It allows a single person and a family to be compared.
The poverty rate is the share of residents whose standard of living is below 60% of the national median. INSEE does not publish it for small communes, for reasons of statistical confidentiality: its absence is not a zero.
The unemployment rate here is the census one: people who declare themselves without work and looking for it, among the economically active aged 15 to 64. It is higher than INSEE's quarterly rate, which follows a stricter international definition.
