We're as chauvinistic as can be, absolutely in love with our city. Why? Well, first of all, we're in the south, so the sun shines on our peachy skin most of the time. And then, because in Montpellier, we know how to party and we love it. And finally, because it's one of the cities in France where it's really good to live and grow old. But if you still have doubts, the website Topito has selected 10 good reasons to settle down here and never leave again.

Tinder had revealed the ranking of beaches where there were the most matches, and in the top 10, we find two very close to Montpellier, in La Grande-Motte and Palavas-les-Flots. Perfect to go find the woman or man of your dreams or just enjoy the ocean.

woman or man of your night.


You can have your afterwork with your feet in the sand

Just out of work you take a 10-minute tram ride and find yourself on the beach, sipping mojitos, relaxing at Rose des Vents or Beach Club. The true good life. Montpellier has the most beautiful tramways in the world.

With its vibrant little designs and aerodynamic curves from outer space, the Montpellier tram wins the award for the most beautiful tram in the universe. It's a nice change from the Paris metro, which is as dreary as a Michael Haneke film.

Perfect for going to the beach and enjoying the sun in the tram (you'll have understood by now, these are very important parts of the city.) And when it rains, it pours so hard that there are floods, and you end up not going to work because everything is blocked.

They have a slightly tanned complexion and smell like the South. When you meet them at the fine arts market, they give you warm smiles and if you're very lucky they might even give you money and diamonds for no reason. But that's pretty rare, you know.
