NUTS-3 FRD21 · France
Eure
Eure generates €18bn of GDP across 603.4k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 59.2/100 is mid-table of EU regions, led by economic scale and market access. Its economy has grown +3.3%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 4.1pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for clean environment (77.3th EU percentile) and weakest for jobs (22th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Mid-field stable49 → 38 EU percentile since 1995 (-11 ranks)
Yearly EU-wide percentile of real GDP per head (ARDECO regional accounts, constant 2020 prices, derived over population). 50 = the EU median that year; percentiles are scale-free, so decades are directly comparable. See the backtest for what long-run prosperity ranks do — and don't — anticipate.
