This statistic illustrates the Human development index (HDI) of France from 1990 to 2017, in selected years. The HDI itself is a statistic that combines life-expectancy, education levels and GDP per capita. Countries with scores over 0.800 are considered to have very high levels of development, compared with countries that score lower. France's HDI score has increased from 0.779 in 1990 to 0.901 by 2017, indicating that France has achieved very high levels of development.
