Vitality score
Vitality score 14.2/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 61 % of the 8,714 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 33 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the ST MARTIN D'ENTRAUNES_SAPC weather station, 5.5 km away at 1,642 m; the village itself is at 948 m. [10]
The village sits 694 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 0 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at PEONE, 11 km away at 1,784 m, over 22 summers. [10]
That station sits 836 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 1,197 mm of rain a year, spread over 100 days — about 12 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at ST MARTIN D'ENTRAUNES_SAPC, 5.5 km away at 1,642 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 Villeneuve-d'Entraunes'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.
