Vitality score

Vitality score 16.1/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 69 % of the 9,787 communes of a similar size.

Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.

Measured but not scored in this model: Market. See the methodology for why.

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 12.5

Days at or below 0 °C 57.6

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 58 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the POUILLY-SUR-SERRE weather station, 12 km away at 68 m; the village itself is at 116 m. ^[11]

An average of 740 mm of rain a year, spread over 131 days — about 5.6 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at ORIGNY-STE-BENO, 10 km away at 75 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

No price figures: fewer than five comparable sales were registered here between 2021 and 2025. A median of two sales is not a median. ^[12]

Uncertainties

No specific uncertainties flagged.
