Question 15505 — housing

Summary

Ms. Marion Lenne questions the Minister of the Economy and Finance about the high cost of living and the cost of housing in Haute-Savoie. Haute-Savoie has the strongest demographic dynamics in France (13.6% more inhabitants between 2006 and 2015), driven in particular by the Geneva metropolis, the Lausanne conurbation and the Chablais region, where cross-border workers receive salaries on average 2.5 times higher than an employee French, necessarily impacting the real estate pressure of the territory. Indeed, the real estate valuation agency “Meilleurs Agents” ranks Haute-Savoie among the most expensive departments in France (seventh place in terms of sales price per square meter and ninth place in terms of rent price per square meter). Also, the President of the Republic, aware of the housing crisis and the cost of living in Haute-Savoie, aimed for a “shock measure” in November 2017. Since then, the Ministry of Finance has rejected the request of the prefect of Haute-Savoie to include the department in the classification of “high cost of living” zones allowing the payment of a residence allowance. She asks him about the measures envisaged to recognize new “high cost of living” zones and, failing that, measures to reduce the cost of housing. which weighs on low wages and retirees, in order to allow them to live more with dignity.
