Property in Saint-Genis-Pouilly (01630)

Saint-Genis-Pouilly has changed more than any other town in the Pays de Gex over twenty years: driven by CERN and by the Geneva tram now reaching the border, it offers the area's best balance of amenities to price. It also has the widest supply of new apartments.

Two markets coexist: recent apartments, liquid and popular with CERN staff, and the far scarcer, hotly contested houses in the hamlets (Pregnin, Flies). Price gaps between the two segments are wide.

• Schools, secondary school and international school close by
• Geneva tram at the border and buses to CERN
• Municipal swimming pool, library and cinema
• Weekly market and town-centre shops
