The district has a population of 23,430, 8 times the number of jobs. Between 2010 and 2021, the population will have increased by 3,280, mainly as a result of the transformation of the Fort d'Issy development project, completed in 2013. The proportion of professional and managerial staff has increased in a neighborhood with 16% social housing. The district is also characterized by the presence of many detached houses, whose gardens contribute to a high level of vegetation, despite the scarcity of public green spaces. Several small urban development projects are currently underway, intensifying these fabrics and representing a total of 73,000 m² of floor space, of which almost 60% has yet to be delivered. These changes are taking place through private real estate operations, transforming certain suburban plots into multi-family housing, particularly in the immediate vicinity of the station.
Launched in 2013, the Observatoire des quartiers de gare du Grand Paris Express is a partnership tool that brings together the Atelier parisien d'urbanisme (Apur), the Société des grands projets (SGP), the Direction régionale et interdépartementale de l'environnement, de l'aménagement et des transports (DRIEAT) and the Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques (Insee) as well as the Établissement public foncier d'Île-de-France (EPFIF) and the Institut Paris Region (IPR). The aim of the observatory is to report on the urban and social transformations linked to the arrival of the metro, at the level of station districts, lines and the network.
Ten years after the first survey, a new phase of the observatory has begun. In keeping with the timetable for the start of operations, the new studies are based on the same perimeter around each station, with an 800-meter radius corresponding to the immediate area of influence covered in a 10-15 minute walk. They also include the main indicators for comparative analysis.
Seven themes provide a fine-grained overview of current and future urban changes - Living environment - Population and jobs - Housing supply and prices - Local life, uses and new centrality - Accessibility and mobility - Environment. They are accompanied by a simple datavisualization, accessible to all from the Apur website and updated every year.
