 <\/p>\n

Ranked at the top of the most attractive cities internationally<\/strong> (according to the 9th<\/sup> edition of the CCE (French Foreign Trade Advisors\u2019) attractiveness index) thanks to its high-quality infrastructure<\/strong>, Lyon is something of an institution on all levels - cultural, gastronomic and economic - and one that is continuously reinventing itself. The capital of the Canuts is a hotbed of gastronomy<\/strong> that ranges from Michelin-starred restaurants to young and highly creative chefs, as well as a cultural breeding ground in perpetual movement. Lyon is generally one of the most liveable cities in the world and attracts some 6\u00a0million tourists every year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The real estate market<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Lyon is also the second-most expensive city in France<\/strong> and boasts a dynamic employment pool and economy, making the region particularly appealing to executives and company managers. The typical BARNES buyer is 48 years old on average, with 91% buying for themselves and 75% buying with someone else. 31% of buyers do not yet live in the region. One thing that has become clear is that more and more locals are buying at the higher end of the market<\/strong>. According to the figures, Lyon is a user market, so we\u2019re talking about a safe-haven investment rather than a quest for profit. Because of this, Lyon has always had a stable market, so there\u2019s no risk of getting caught in a bubble.<\/p>\n

Our advice<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The predicted exodus to the countryside did not happen. Our city centres have not been left deserted. 53.54% of our sales in 2021 were apartments and 46.46% were houses<\/strong>. Properties with a terrace or a view, however, are always in high demand, while the quality of the local schools has also always been a key factor for parents when deciding which neighbourhood they want to live in. This keeps prices high. Note: the 2nd<\/sup> and 6th<\/sup> arrondissements<\/em> are particularly sought after (around \u20ac6,000 to \u20ac6,900 per sq.m).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Top tip<\/strong> The Val de Sa\u00f4ne area is now an excellent compromise between the city centre and the countryside. There are still high-quality properties available here that offer space, views and greenery at affordable prices without the hassle of commuting. Not to mention some great schools that draw families to the area.<\/p>\n

Art de vivre<\/h2>\n

Old Lyon is just a stone\u2019s throw from the city's bustling city centre and its international vibe. BARNES\u2019 cultural and dining recommendations feature some real gems from each.<\/p>\n
