Located on the outskirts of Geneva, Ornex and its hamlets (Maconnex and Villard-Tacon) enjoy a preserved environment, characterized by an exceptional panorama of the High Jura Range, Lake Geneva and the Alps. Its heritage, its green spaces and its communal life make it a pleasant living environment. Ornex now has more than 4,500 inhabitants and continues to welcome newcomers. Major developments are planned in the short, medium and long term to provide the territory with the necessary modern infrastructure while maintaining and enhancing the ornate identity. The commune has two schools, a party hall and a multi-traditional hall. Playgrounds allow families and young people to enjoy the unspoiled surroundings. The city stadium and its football field, behind the municipal technical centre, the BWX pitch and its street workout facilities on Place d'Armes street, are available to teenagers. Tennis players can also enjoy the open-air court also located on Place d'Armes Street, free from any nuisance. Between the woods and the Promenade des Tattes, walkers and cyclists can ride safely and in peace.
