Saint-André

Saint-André is a commune located in the eastern part of Réunion, a French overseas region. The settlement functions as an administrative hub with government offices, shops, and residential areas spread along main roads and local streets.

The commune developed as part of French settlement and administrative organization on Réunion island. Its boundaries and administrative role have shifted several times over recent decades, with a major reorganization occurring in 2015.

The town blends French administrative traditions with local Réunionese customs that shape daily routines and social gatherings. Residents gather in public spaces where formal institutions coexist with the more relaxed pace of island life.

Visitors can find local shops, restaurants, and administrative buildings clustered in the town center. Daytime visits work best when services and shops are open and the area shows its daily activity.

The administrative boundaries extend beyond the main town and include sections of neighboring Sainte-Suzanne commune. This split jurisdiction is not always obvious to visitors but shapes how the area is governed and services are delivered.
