Atmospheric illustration of Anzin, a former mining town at the gateway to Valenciennes, in the Nord department.
The average price of apartments in Anzin stands at 1 639 €/m², based on the DVF transactions registered with notaries, the French record of notarised property sales. Adjoining Valenciennes, in the Nord, the municipality is a major site of mining history, marked by its miners' terraces and by the Compagnie des mines d'Anzin. Its dense, working-class urban fabric offers some of the most affordable prices in the urban area. The value of a property there depends on proximity to Valenciennes and to the tram, on the often older condition of the home, on its type and on the presence of outdoor space.

The Anzin market remains driven by local demand for affordable housing and by the momentum of the Valenciennes urban area, whose tram has brought the municipality closer to the central town.
The strength of Anzin lies in its very low entry cost and in its immediate proximity to Valenciennes. The limit lies in an older stock that often calls for works and in a mining image that still weighs on its residential appeal.
Anzin sits below Valenciennes and in the lower range of the municipalities of the urban area and the former coalfield.
Anzin is inseparable from the coal adventure: the Compagnie des mines d'Anzin, founded in 1757, was one of the most powerful coal companies in France.
The municipality lived to the rhythm of the pits and the miners' terraces, and was the scene of major workers' strikes that inspired, among other things, nineteenth-century literature.
With 13 183 inhabitants, Anzin has turned the page on mining but keeps a dense, working-class urban fabric, now part of the Valenciennes urban area and served by its tram.

Modest households, first-time buyers and investors find there mining-style town houses and apartments at some of the lowest prices in the Valenciennes urban area. Demand remains local, driven by the immediate proximity of Valenciennes and by the tram service. Buyers value the very affordable entry cost, the proximity of the services of the central town and the renovation opportunities of the older stock.
The average price of apartments in Anzin is 1 639 €/m², based on the notaries' DVF transactions. That level is among the most affordable in the Valenciennes urban area and varies with the condition of the property, its type and its location.
The mining legacy and the working-class character of the urban fabric keep price levels moderate. The stock, often older, offers affordable town houses to renovate, which sets Anzin apart from the more highly rated residential municipalities of the urban area.
Yes. Anzin directly adjoins Valenciennes and its demand comes largely from working households looking for an affordable home in immediate proximity to the central town and its tram.
Its low entry cost and its proximity to Valenciennes make it an area watched by investors. The renovation of the mining stock and the transport links can support rental demand, provided the location is chosen carefully.
