City Policy Priority Neighborhoods (QPV)

Article 5 of the Planning Law for the City and Urban Cohesion of 21 February 2014 lays down the procedures for reforming the priority geography of city policy. These perimeters replace sensitive urban areas (Zus) and neighbourhoods under an urban contract for social cohesion (Cucs) as of 1 January 2015. The first generation of priority neighbourhoods in force from 01 January 2015 to 31 December 2023 was defined by [Decree No 2014-1750 of 30 December 2014](https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000030007934&categorieLien=id) for metropolitan France and by [Decree No 2014-1751 of 30 December 2014](https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/eli/decret/2014/12/30/2014-1751/jo/texte) for the overseas departments of Saint Martin and French Polynesia. To adapt to the evolution of the territories, an update of the priority geography was carried out in the spirit of the programming law for the city and urban cohesion of 2014. A new generation of priority districts enters into force on 1 January 2024 for metropolitan France by [Decree No 2023-1314 of 28 December 2023](https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/jorf/id/JORFTEXT000048707389). For the overseas departments, Saint-Martin and French Polynesia, the 2015 quarters remain in force until 31 December 2024 and will be updated by 1 January 2025. For the districts of metropolitan France, the work was conducted in 2023 by the department prefectures, with local consultation, based on the ANCT and the provision of data by INSEE. The new numbering of QP 2024 follows the format "QNXXXYYZ" where XX = department code, YY = serial number and Z is a letter. N = new PQ, entering the priority geography in 2024 M = pre-existing QP in 2015 with modified outline in priority geography in 2024 (possible merger or split of QP 2015) I = Pre-existing PQ in 2015 with contour very similar to that of 2015 For more information on the areas covered by the city policy, you can consult the [Système d'information géographique de la politique de la ville] (https://sig.ville.gouv.fr/).
