The La Penne-sur-Huveaune market remains driven by residential pressure on the Huveaune valley, where demand for houses close to Marseille and Aubagne lastingly exceeds the supply available.
The strength of the municipality lies in its central position between two employment areas and in its setting of Provençal hills. The limit lies in a land supply constrained by the relief and the valley, and in a strong dependence on the roads, often busy at peak times.

La Penne-sur-Huveaune is a former Provençal village set along the Huveaune, the river that shaped the valley between Marseille and Aubagne.
Long rural and industrial, marked by activities tied to water and to the routes towards the eastern side of Marseille, the municipality has gradually moved into the residential orbit of the metropolitan area.
It has today around 6 600 inhabitants and keeps, between its village core and its hills, a quieter character than the neighbouring parts of Marseille, while enjoying their immediate closeness.
With around 6 600 inhabitants, La Penne-sur-Huveaune attracts mainly families and working households employed in Marseille or Aubagne who look for a more residential setting without leaving the valley.
