In the Terre Sainte, Chavannes-des-Bois runs along the French border behind Mies and Tannay, firmly within Geneva's commuter belt.
Buying in Chavannes-des-Bois means paying more per square metre than almost anywhere in Vaud, at CHF 10,200 for a flat. The gap holds even on older stock, so renovation work rarely comes off the asking price the way it does elsewhere. A gap of 29 percent over the Vaud median is not statistical noise. It measures what buyers accept to pay for the location itself, and it holds through the cycle instead of appearing in one strong year.

The district test is the harder one.
