Vitality score
Vitality score 5.6/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 11 % of the 4,093 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 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 29 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the LE MAS weather station, 8.6 km away at 1,525 m; the village itself is at 839 m. [10]
The village sits 686 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.21 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at LE MAS, 8.6 km away at 1,525 m, over 19 summers. [10]
That station sits 686 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 1,166 mm of rain a year, spread over 84 days — about 13.9 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at LE MAS, 8.6 km away at 1,525 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

…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 Amirat'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.
