Revitalizing Territories

French population growth continues to be driven by large urban centers, neglecting medium-sized and small towns. This underlying trend raises issues related to the dynamism of certain territories that are losing their appeal and underscores the importance of maintaining attractive urban centers in small and medium-sized towns to ensure territorial cohesion between rural areas and metropolitan areas.

In Metropolitan France, 98.5% of municipalities have fewer than 20,000 inhabitants and account for 57.8% of the population. The reality of these municipalities is diverse and goes beyond the simple urban/rural distinction.
