The average apartment price in Pégomas stands at 4 473 €/m², based on DVF transactions actually registered with notaries (DVF is the French record of notarised property sales). A municipality of the Alpes-Maritimes set in the Siagne valley, between Cannes and Grasse, Pégomas is a small residential town of the Cannes hinterland, known for its mimosa growing and its flowers destined for the perfume industry of Grasse. The market there benefits from the land pressure of the Côte d'Azur, while staying more measured than on the immediate coast. Demand comes from working households employed in Cannes, Grasse or the neighbouring employment area, looking for a greener setting within reasonable distance of the sea. The value of a property depends on its location, between the village centre, the residential districts of the hills and the sectors close to the Siagne, and on its aspect, its condition and the presence of outdoor space.

The Pégomas market forms part of the momentum of the Cannes hinterland, under the influence of land pressure on the Côte d'Azur. The municipality benefits from sustained population growth, from seven to more than eight thousand inhabitants in a decade, which feeds steady demand from families and working people. Its position between Cannes and Grasse, in a greener setting than the coast, shapes a market oriented towards detached houses and main residences.
Several factors sustain the appeal of the municipality. The closeness of Cannes, of Grasse and of the neighbouring employment hubs, the setting of the Siagne valley and a price level more measured than on the coast are assets for buyers. Conversely, the land pressure typical of the Alpes-Maritimes and the scarcity of buildable plots limit supply. The market therefore stays firm, with marked gaps depending on location, setting and the condition of the property.
Pégomas sits behind the coast at Mandelieu-la-Napoule and the prized hillside municipalities such as Mougins, while staying above Grasse, an inland town with a broader market.
Pégomas took shape from the sixteenth century, when families from Italy settled in the Siagne valley and planted olive trees, vines and fruit trees there. They brought their skill in growing aromatic and flowering plants, which would become one of the marks of the area. The village gradually organised itself around its farmland, in a setting of hills wooded with cork oaks, pines and mimosa.
Flower growing durably shaped the local economy. Pégomas presents itself as a capital of the mimosa and produces flowers destined for the perfume industry of nearby Grasse. The Siagne, which crosses the municipality among the mimosa, the olive trees and the poplars, shapes the landscape and feeds a farming tradition that long prevailed before the residential boom.
Over recent decades Pégomas has seen sustained population growth, carried by the appeal of the Cannes hinterland. The population rose from about seven thousand inhabitants in the mid-2010s to more than eight thousand today. That momentum came with new facilities, such as the Arnaud-Beltrame secondary school opened in 2018, and with growing integration into the everyday area of Cannes, Grasse and the Pays de Grasse authority.
Pégomas has about 8 240 inhabitants, a population that has risen markedly over the past ten years. The housing stock mixes detached houses, numerous in the residential districts of the hills, with more recent blocks of flats accompanying the growth of the municipality. Main residences make up most of the stock. Buyers are mainly working households and families employed in Cannes, Grasse, Mandelieu or Sophia-Antipolis, drawn by a greener setting than the coast and by prices more measured than on the seafront, while staying close to the sea.
The average apartment price in Pégomas is 4 473 €/m², based on DVF transactions actually completed before notaries. This average covers gaps depending on location, between the village centre, the residential districts of the hills and the sectors close to the Siagne, and on the aspect, the condition and the presence of outdoor space. A recent property with a view or a garden trades above that reference.
Pégomas appeals through its position in the Cannes hinterland, within reasonable distance of the sea, in a greener setting than the coast. The municipality benefits from the closeness of Cannes, Grasse and the neighbouring employment hubs, while offering an environment of hills, mimosa and the banks of the Siagne. That combination of quality of life and accessibility supports steady demand from families and working people.
Pégomas lies a few kilometres from both Cannes and Grasse, linked by the road network of the Siagne valley. That central position between the coast and the interior, close to Mandelieu and to the Sophia-Antipolis area, is one of the main drivers of local property demand, for working people who are employed on the coast while living in a quieter setting.
The municipality has seen strong population growth and has acquired new facilities, including the Arnaud-Beltrame secondary school opened in 2018. Its residential setting, its housing districts and its closeness to the employment hubs of the Cannes area make it a municipality suited to families. The market is naturally driven by detached houses, whose location and setting weigh heavily on value.
The setting of the Siagne valley, between mimosa, olive trees and wooded hills, is one of the strong arguments of Pégomas and adds to its residential appeal. Properties with a preserved environment, a favourable aspect or outdoor space stand out on the market. Location, closeness to the village centre and to services, and the quality of the setting are criteria to examine when buying.
