The (total) population of the municipality Perche en Nocé were calculated by adding the individual districts, ie the ehm. independent municipalities determined

The main reason for the emergence of new large municipalities in the various regions of France is the continuous and in many cases still persistent population decline in the rural municipalities since the middle of the 19th or the beginning of the 20th century; this is mainly due to the closure of small farms as well as the mechanization of agriculture and the associated loss of jobs.

economy

The villages of the municipality have always been agriculturally oriented, with grazing - especially the breeding of Percheron horses - playing an important role. In ancient times, the livestock trade and the manufacture and sale of cheese and charcoal were often the only sources of income for people. Since the 1960s, tourism has been playing an increasingly important role in the form of renting holiday homes ( gîtes ) .

history

The area had been secluded from all historical conflicts and events for centuries.
