NUTS-3 FRE22 · France
Oise
Oise generates €26bn of GDP across 827.9k residents. Its Opportunity Index of 65.8/100 puts it in the upper quartile of EU regions, led by market access and economic scale. Its economy has grown +3.4%/yr over five years and accelerating, with the employment rate up 6.6pp. On quality of life it ranks strongest for health (54th EU percentile) and weakest for jobs (20.5th).
Long-run trajectory · EU percentile of real GDP per head, 1995–2024
Long-run faller60 → 41 EU percentile since 1995 (-19 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.
