Vitality score

Vitality score 20.1/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 62 % of the 15,841 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

An average of 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 58 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

Measured at the LES-RICEYS-CIVC weather station, 5.6 km away at 274 m; the village itself is at 198 m. ^[10]

The village sits 76 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.89 °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 LES-RICEYS, 6.4 km away at 185 m, over 20 summers. ^[10]

An average of 828 mm of rain a year, spread over 128 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at VILLIERS-SOUS-P, 5.3 km away at 237 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]

What property sold for

17 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 115,000 € — 869 € per m² of built surface. ^[11]

The median across Aube is 1,324 € per m², so this commune sits below 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.
