Strengths & weaknesses — by weighted effect

▲ Saturation 83 — 2 clubs / 13,645 residents = 14.66 per 100k against 11.01 nationally

▲ Income 77 — 23,200 EUR against 22,380 nationally, median of 5 IRIS within 2 km

▲ Competition 64 — 2 genuine gym floors and 1 other sports site within 2 km, weighted by substitutability and price tier

▼ Catchment 42 — 7,447 aged 18-64 + 5,360 workers = 12,807 over 12.57 km2 = 1,019/km2

How the score was reached — seven parameters, five measured separately at 500 m and 2 km

Parameter	Where	Measured	Score	How it was arrived at
Catchment 42 weight 20%	500 m	1,827 people	48	1,013 aged 18-64 + 814 workers = 1,827 over 0.79 km2 = 2,327/km2
Catchment 42 weight 20%	2 km	12,807 people	38	7,447 aged 18-64 + 5,360 workers = 12,807 over 12.57 km2 = 1,019/km2
Competition 64 weight 15%	500 m	1.00 wt	58	1 genuine gym floor and 0 other sports sites within 500 m, weighted by substitutability and price tier
Competition 64 weight 15%	2 km	2.10 wt	69	2 genuine gym floors and 1 other sports site within 2 km, weighted by substitutability and price tier
Capture 54 weight 20%	500 m	1,104 people	49	794 residents + 310 workers, demand within 500 m against every competitor within 3 km
Capture 54 weight 20%	2 km	5,826 people	56	4,524 residents + 1,303 workers, demand within 2 km against every competitor within 3 km
Saturation 83 weight 15%	500 m	not measured	—	catchment of 1,824 residents is below the 10,000 needed for a density measure to mean anything — one club would move it by 5.0 LQ
Saturation 83 weight 15%	2 km	LQ 1.33	83	2 clubs / 13,645 residents = 14.66 per 100k against 11.01 nationally
Fit — weight 10%	unit	not measured	—	no floor area recorded for this unit
Rental — weight 10%	unit	not measured	—	no rent or no floor area recorded
Income 77 weight 10%	500 m	1.02×	74	22,880 EUR against 22,380 nationally, containing IRIS (no IRIS centre inside the radius)
Income 77 weight 10%	2 km	1.04×	79	23,200 EUR against 22,380 nationally, median of 5 IRIS within 2 km

Each parameter scores 0–100 on a stated line between named breakpoints, then the seven combine on their weights — renormalised over whatever was measurable, so a missing parameter dilutes nothing rather than counting as zero.

Competitive field — every active gym and other sports site within 3 km

Band	Gym floors	Other sports	MCI weight
within 500 m	1	0	1.00
500 m – 1 km	1	1	1.10
1 – 2 km	0	0	—
2 – 3 km	0	0	—
Within 3 km	2	1	2.1 total

Each site is discounted by how substitutable its activity is for a gym and how far its price tier sits from a mid-market club — so 2 gym floors and 1 other sports sites weigh 2.1, not 3.

Competition since opening — gyms within 1 km, by the year they opened

6 when it opened, 2026-06-08 → 6 today, 0 arrived since

6 rival(s) within 1 km when this club opened, 6 now. The forecast uses the founding count: it measured better than averaging the field over the club's life (LOOCV 0.091 vs 0.106). 1 nearby site(s) have no usable opening date and are not in either count.

Access — straight-line distance, GTFS

Nearest tram: TECHNOPOLE — 4618 m
Nearest bus: LA VAURE — 311 m
Counted footfall: Saint-Étienne La Terrasse — 5349 m, 135,932 travellers a year (SNCF)

Straight-line, not travel time: no free routing service covers France at this volume, so a stop 300 m away across a railway line reads the same as one 300 m along the street.

Catchment — INSEE 200 m population grid, Filosofi 2021

Ring	Residents	Per km²	Median age	Adults 18–64	Share of residents
0.5 km	1,824	2,322	41.6	1,013	56%
1.0 km	7,543	2,401	44.2	4,093	54%
2.0 km	13,645	1,086	45.4	7,447	55%
3.0 km	16,012	566	45	8,770	55%

Adults 18–64 is the span members come from. A median age alone does not separate a student quarter from a family suburb, and those are not the same market.

Household income — INSEE Filosofi 2021

Published at iris level (IRIS 423020101). An IRIS is a neighbourhood of roughly 2,000 people; a commune can be a whole town. The level travels with the figure, so a town's median is never read as this street's.

What this is. The Location Score is model output, computed from open data; it is not a measured fact and not a valuation. Registry facts — name, SIRET, NAF, address, opening date, officers, filed revenue — come from INSEE Sirene and the Ministère des Sports facility census. Population, age profile and income are INSEE (Filosofi 2021, 200 m grid and IRIS). Competitors are the active, genuinely-operating gym floors in this database. Distances are straight-line, not travel time.
