It is the most populous town in the Drôme and the 8th in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes with 64,458 inhabitants recorded in 2023 (132,749 inhabitants for the agglomeration in 2023).

A little history
Note that the demonym corresponding to Valence is Valentinois, but "Valentinois" also refers to a geographical and historical region and one of the former provinces of France that formed part of the province of the Dauphiné. The county, which became the duché de Valentinois, did not have Valence as its capital because that town was a possession of the comtes-évêques de Valence. There was therefore the comté de Valence (with Valence as its capital) on the one hand, and the comté de Valentinois on the other. The city of Massalia, long on good terms with Rome, had asked it for help against the Salyens who were ravaging its territory.

Selling in Valence
Pricing in Valence starts by placing your property inside the €1,607 to €2,500 band rather than on the median alone. The median describes the middle of the market; condition, floor, outdoor space and energy rating decide where in the band you sit.
With 1,063 sales a year, Valence absorbs correctly priced properties. An over-ambitious price shows quickly, because buyers have points of comparison.
Briveo values your Valence property from the same DVF file, keeping only sales of comparable properties closest to your address, free of charge and with no obligation, then supports the sale through to the deed.
Buying in Valence
Reading the €1,607 to €2,500 band is a buyer’s main tool in Valence. A property at the bottom is not a bargain and one at the top is not a rip-off, the band measures how different the properties are, not how well they are priced.
A stable market usually means a negotiation decided by the property itself rather than by any general trend.
Acquisition costs are budgeted on top of the price, around 8 % on an existing property, around 3 % on a new one. These are orders of magnitude; the notary computes the exact amount.
