Vitality score
Vitality score 53/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 51 % of the 4,013 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 26 days a year at or above 30 °C and 1 day at or below 0 °C, over 15 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the NICE-RIMIEZ weather station, 0.7 km away at 238 m; the village itself is at 54 m. [10]
The village sits 184 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 23 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at NICE-RIMIEZ, 0.7 km away at 238 m, over 16 summers. [10]
That station sits 184 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 769 mm of rain a year, spread over 61 days — about 12.6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at NICE-RIMIEZ, 0.7 km away at 238 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
68 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 464,950 € — 3,868 € per m² of built surface. [11]
239 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 195,000 € — 3,803 € per m². [11]
The median across Alpes-Maritimes is 4,054 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [11]
These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.

…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 Saint-André-de-la-Roche'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.
