The Longvic market remains active for a suburban municipality, with a steady flow of sales each year in DVF data, split between apartments and houses. This activity reflects the immediate closeness of Dijon and a green living environment that attracts families. New supply comes partly from the eco-districts, but most transactions involve resales within the existing housing stock, the municipality combining housing, natural spaces and business zones.
Several factors support these price levels. Membership of Dijon Métropole, excellent road and rail links, the presence of eco-districts and a green setting sustain solid demand, particularly for detached houses. Conversely, the inner-suburban positioning and the presence of a large industrial zone keep the apartment average below that of central Dijon and of the most sought-after residential municipalities in the urban area.
Longvic sits below Dijon, the central city of the metropolitan area, and below Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur, a residential municipality in the east of the urban area. It also remains more affordable than Talant, on the heights north of Dijon, which reflects its profile as a southern suburb that is both residential and industrial.
At the dawn of the 20th century, Longvic was still a modest farming village of around 600 inhabitants, on the right bank of the Ouche, a few kilometres south-east of Dijon. Its territory keeps the trace of an older past with the castel de la Colombière, a hunting lodge built at the gates of Dijon by the House of Bourbon-Condé. The population doubled on the eve of the First World War, setting off the transformation of the village.
The history of Longvic is inseparable from aviation. The airfield, opened in 1914 and officially named the Longvic aviation centre in 1923, became Air Base 102 (base aérienne 102), one of the oldest in France, placed under the patronage of Georges Guynemer. The base ended its flying activity in 2014 and was disbanded in 2016, after more than a century of existence; the conversion of the site then got under way for the benefit of the urban area.
Longvic joined the Dijon district in 1978 and is now part of Dijon Métropole. The municipality is organised into three main areas: natural and farmland spaces, residential neighbourhoods including several eco-districts, and a large industrial and logistics zone. This organisation, at once residential, green and economic, shapes its current face as a southern suburb of Dijon.
Longvic has 8 896 inhabitants. A municipality in the southern suburbs of Dijon, part of Dijon Métropole and crossed by the Ouche, it combines housing, large green spaces and one of the largest industrial zones in Côte-d'Or. Buyers are mainly households from the Dijon urban area: first-time buyers attracted by prices lower than in Dijon, families looking for a house with a garden in the suburban housing areas or the eco-districts, and working people employed in Dijon or in the neighbouring business parks. The market mixes the town's apartments and detached houses, in an inner-suburban area well connected to the centre.
The average price of apartments in Longvic is 2 099 €/m², based on DVF transactions actually completed with notaries. For houses and villas, the average is closer to 3 646 €/m². These levels vary with the neighbourhood, the construction period, the presence of outdoor space and closeness to green spaces or to the roads towards Dijon.
In Longvic, detached houses, often located in suburban housing areas or eco-districts with gardens, trade well above apartments. This gap reflects the scarcity of land for houses and strong demand from families. The reference price of 2 099 €/m² applies to apartments, that of around 3 646 €/m² to houses.
Longvic lies about 4 km south-east of Dijon and belongs to the same metropolitan authority. The municipality is crossed by many transport routes, motorway, railway lines and departmental roads, and is served by the Dijon Métropole public transport network. This accessibility supports residential demand and the town's economic role.
Air Base 102, disbanded in 2016, long shaped the identity of Longvic. Its conversion and the development of business parks contribute to local economic vitality, without weighing directly on residential prices. The housing market remains driven mainly by the closeness of Dijon and the municipality's living environment.
Yes. Presented as the garden town of the metropolitan area, Longvic keeps large natural and farmland spaces and is developing eco-districts, despite the presence of a large industrial zone. This living environment, a few minutes from Dijon, is among the assets that attract families and first-time buyers to the municipality.
