Vitality score

Vitality score 62.8/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 97 % of the 14,093 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

Measured at the LANAS SYN weather station, 3.9 km away at 265 m; the village itself is at 160 m. ^[9]

The village sits 105 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[9]

Humidity measured at LANAS SYN, 3.9 km away at 265 m, over 29 summers. ^[9]

That station sits 105 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[9]

An average of 1,056 mm of rain a year, spread over 80 days — about 13.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[9]

Rainfall measured at LANAS SYN, 3.9 km away at 265 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[9]
