Confidence: high.

Better served than 15 % of the 13,055 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.

Climate

An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 65 days at or below 0 °C, over 10 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the ATTIGNY weather station, 6.6 km away at 81 m; the village itself is at 77 m. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at SAULCES-CHAMPENOISES, 7 km away at 147 m, over 21 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 70 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 843 mm of rain a year, spread over 137 days — about 6.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at ATTIGNY, 6.6 km away at 81 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

7 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 80,000 € — 597 € per m² of built surface. ^[12]

The median across Ardennes is 1,100 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[12]

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.

Uncertainties
