The Arles market is that of a heritage town in the Bouches-du-Rhône, at the gateway to the Camargue. With an average price around 2 919 €/m² for an apartment and around 3 185 €/m² for a house, Arles sits above the inland towns of the department, without reaching the levels of the most sought-after Provençal coast or of the prized districts of the Marseille metropolitan area.
Geography draws the map of prices. The historic centre, La Roquette and the residential districts of the east, such as Mouleyres and Les Alyscamps, concentrate the highest prices. The northern faubourgs, such as Le Trébon, and the large Griffeuille estate, in the west, remain the most affordable in the town.

Arles is a town in the Bouches-du-Rhône, at the gateway to the Camargue, on the Rhône. It is the largest municipality in mainland France, its territory running from the streets of the historic centre to the lagoons and marshes of the Camargue. Its Roman and Romanesque centre is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The town holds Roman heritage of the first order, with its arena, its amphitheatre, its ancient theatre, the cryptoporticoes and the Alyscamps necropolis, along with the Saint-Trophime church and the Place de la République for Romanesque art. Arles is also the town where Van Gogh painted, the town of the Rencontres de la Photographie and, more recently, of the Luma foundation.
The geography of prices follows that history: the historic centre and the residential districts of the centre and the east command higher values, while the northern faubourgs and the large housing estate in the west remain more affordable. The Rhône separates the town from Trinquetaille, on the right bank.
