Vitality score
Vitality score 46.9/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 75 % of the 13,512 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
An average of 17 days a year at or above 30 °C and 155 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the JAUSIERS-ST ANNE weather station, 0.9 km away at 1,240 m; the village itself is at 1,222 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at BARCELONNETTE, 5.9 km away at 1,155 m, over 27 summers. [11]
That station sits 67 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 678 mm of rain a year, spread over 84 days — about 8.1 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at JAUSIERS-ST ANNE, 0.9 km away at 1,240 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

…and in much the same climate
The same match on size and services, narrowed to communes whose summers, winters and summer humidity are all close to Jausiers's. All three are required, so this section is absent for the 11.8 % of communes with no humidity station near enough to measure: two temperature axes alone cannot tell a muggy coast from a dry one.
