The Argenteuil-Bezons urban community benefits from an exceptional geographical location in Ile-de-France, with an 8 km shore by the Seine and a hillside landscape that has shaped its urban development. Largely involved in the implementation of important urban projects, the community strongly values the multiple assets of its territory.

Heir to an industrial tradition which dates back to the nineteenth century, the urban community has developed itself over the twentieth century, between industrial and residential areas.
Today, 2 500 firms are exercising various economical activities on the territory. The community is taking charge of its economic development and future. Thus, it has undertaken the upgrading of the 5 business parks that are already hosting international groups such as Dassault Aviation, Atos Origin, EMC2, Free, General Motors or Givaudan.

The service sector is another powerful development factor.
Within the urban community, 950 service enterprises, including 600 specialized in consulting and engineering, employ 10,000 employees.

Argenteuil and Bezons also constitute pleasant cities to live in. This is where Impressionism was founded, around the figure of painter Claude Monet and, today, creation remains a living tradition for the 132 000 inhabitants of the urban community.
The hospital, currently under reconstruction, offers a privileged access to a modern and efficient public health service. The diversity of both individual and collective housing options ensures an adequate balance and contrast on the territory.
