Strengths & weaknesses — by weighted effect

▲ Catchment 65 — 1,153 aged 18-64 + 3,184 workers = 4,337 over 0.79 km2 = 5,522/km2
▲ Competition 61 — 0 genuine gym floors and 0 other sports sites within 500 m, weighted by substitutability and price tier
▲ Capture 54 — 485 residents + 1,422 workers, demand within 500 m against every competitor within 3 km
▼ Income 11 — 18,510 EUR against 22,380 nationally, median of 2 IRIS within 500 m
▼ Saturation 36 — 10 clubs / 39,871 residents = 25.08 per 100k against 11.01 nationally

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.

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 22 gym floors and 8 other sports sites weigh 22.1, not 30.

6 rival(s) within 1 km when this club opened, 10 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 rail
Saint-Césaire — 1833 m
Nearest bus
LAURIERS — 66 m
Counted footfall
Saint-Césaire — 1833 m, 39,197 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.

Officers — company representatives on file

Legal representatives, not shareholders. France closed public access to the beneficial-ownership registry in July 2024, so who owns the company is not obtainable from open data.

Filed accounts — INPI, the keyed annual accounts

Revenue

Net result
not filed
No keyed accounts in INPI's feed for this company. Absence means unfiled, not zero — most small French companies file late or not at all.
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.
