Geography

Annemasse is part of the metropolitan area of Geneva.

Annemasse is the last exit of the French motorway A40 before the border. It is thus well connected with the other cities of the region.

The city is surrounded by the Mont Salève (alt. 1300m) and the Arve River on the West, the Voirons (alt. 1450m) on the East and the Swiss border on the North.

Economy
The main activity is commerce: due to the foreign exchange situation, a lot of Swiss people come to Annemasse to purchase food and other commodities. A large proportion of the population work in Geneva, Thụy Sĩ, where the salaries are higher than in France. To encourage this mobility, the CEVA project will extend the existing rail connection between Annemasse and Genève Eaux-Vives through to Gare de Cornavin

Companies
Annemasse has 1'898 company locations on its territory, a large share of it being shops and services.
The three main companies operating in Annemasse are Parker Hannifin (turnover: € 134 million), Siegwerk (107 M €) and the Giant Casino Annemasse (17 M €, enlarged in 2003).

Administration
The urban area of Annemasse (consisting of six cities or "communes") is the second largest agglomération in Haute-Savoie.

The city mayor 1977 - 2008 was Robert Borrel from the Socialist Party, but the Conservative Party usually gets the majority in other elections.
