Vaulx-en-Velin is a town in the east of the Lyon metropolitan area, set between the Jonage canal to the north and Villeurbanne to the west. Its old heart, Le Village, keeps the character of a small town along the canal, while the municipality is home to the planetarium, a well-known scientific venue in the wider urban area.
In the second half of the twentieth century, the town saw the building of large housing schemes on the plateau, such as Mas du Taureau and La Grappinière, today the subject of urban renewal programmes. To the east, the La Soie and Carré de Soie area has turned into a new district, on the edge of Villeurbanne, around the tram, the metro and a retail hub.
The geography of prices follows that history: the new eastern hub, La Soie and Genas-Dumas, pulls up the top of the market, the Village and the areas of detached housing occupy the middle of the range, and the large housing schemes under renewal in the north and south remain the most accessible.

Prices, below those of Lyon and Villeurbanne, are sought after for the proximity of the metropolitan area and the transport links.
