Simple download service (Atom) of the dataset: Partial New-Aquitaine: Sensible Urban Zone (ZUS) — Perimeters (surface)

This dataset contains the perimeters (surface objects) of sensitive urban areas (ZUS) including those of the urban revitalisation zone (ZRU) of the New Aquitaine region. PLEASE NOTE: this dataset is not exhaustive on the perimeter of New Aquitaine. It concerns the perimeter of the former Aquitaine region. The Law of 14 November 1996 implementing the City Recovery Pact (PRV) distinguishes three levels of intervention: sensitive urban areas, urban revitalisation zones (ZRUs), urban free zones (ZFU). These three levels of intervention ZUS, ZRU and ZFU, characterised by devices of increasing importance, aim to respond to different degrees of difficulties encountered in these neighbourhoods. Sensitive urban areas are infra-urban areas defined by the public authorities to be the priority target of city policy, depending on local considerations related to the difficulties faced by the inhabitants of these territories. Sensitive urban areas are defined in the PRV Act as areas “characterised by the presence of large settlements or degraded areas of habitat and by an increased imbalance between housing and employment”. The SEZs were determined on qualitative criteria (large sets, employment/habitat imbalance) through a joint community-state analysis. These areas are also part of the priority areas of urban social cohesion contracts (CUCS). In addition, the PRV law states that 'urban revitalisation areas correspond to those in sensitive urban areas... which face particular difficulties, assessed on the basis of their situation in the agglomeration, their economic and commercial characteristics and a synthetic index. It is established, under conditions laid down by decree, taking into account the number of inhabitants of the neighbourhood, the unemployment rate, the proportion of young people under the age of 25, the proportion of people leaving the school system without a diploma and the tax potential of the municipalities concerned.’
