MoZaïC Asset Management, an independent real estate asset manager
specialized in healthcare real estate in Europe, and BONARD, a global market research and
investment intelligence firm for rented residential asset classes, are going to present the first-ofits-
kind report on assisted living market in France.
The report addresses the need for having comprehensive, standardised and robust data on the
fast-growing senior living asset class, thus giving the market a new level of transparency and
allowing for better investment environment. The aim of the report is to provide a demandsupply
analysis and up-to-date insight into senior living in France, at the national level with
closer look into the top 20 locations across France.
The initiative brings much needed data and context for the segment facing growing pressure due
limited stock. As shown by the report, the senior population in France is growing: the 60+
segment will increase by more than 7% over the next five years, while the total population of
Metropolitan France will grow by just 0.6% over the same period. The number of people aged
75+ will increase by 4%, to constitute 10% of the total population of Metropolitan France by
2025.
The report concentrates on the 75+ age segment and analyses senior living establishments in
France with a focus on private commercial service residences. At the same time, the
research provides key information on public stock, as well as an overview of establishments for
dependent people.
The research has identified 433 assisted living establishments in the top 20 cities, with a
total capacity of over 26,231 apartments. With the population aged 75+ in the cities cumulatively
accounting for 654,914 people, there is a clear lack of supply to meet the growing demand for
assisted living residences.
In addition to that, assisted living establishments in France account for fewer than 3,000
establishments, among which are just over 600 service residences.
Among the cities with the highest number of residents aged 75+, the highest provision rates
are seen in Bordeaux (9.7%), Reims (7.6%), Strasbourg (6.4%) and Angers (6.1%), while the
lowest are in Toulon (1.7%) and Nice (1.8%).
Based on price research in the top 20 cities, the average monthly rate for a single studio in a
private residence is €1,090 per person.
As regards new locations for assisted living establishments in France, providers are showing
most interest in Angers, Lyon and Toulouse, with six establishments in the pipeline in each city,
as well as Brest and Clermont-Ferrand, where there are five and three assisted living
establishments in the pipeline, respectively.
The data presented within the report was gathered through a combination of secondary and
primary research. In order to conduct the research, over 100 secondary sources were collated
and screened. These included local and international statistics offices, industry-specific resources
(inter alia, Cap Residences Seniors and Essentiel-autonomie.com), real estate portals, and the
websites of individual senior living establishments.
In addition, national and local media were monitored to complement the information
acquired from the main sources. The primary research components included direct outreach to
private residences and statistics offices (via phone and email).
A professional team of over 10 analysts conducted this in-depth study following the
ICC/ESOMAR International Code on Market, Opinion and Social Research and Data Analytics. The
project was carried out between February and April 2020. While every effort has been
made to ensure that the data is comprehensive, BONARD and MoZaïC AM provide no
representation, or warranty, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness or
