Vitality score

Vitality score 8.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 9 % of the 14,305 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

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 63 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]

Measured at the DOSNON weather station, 8.8 km away at 115 m; the village itself is at 143 m. [9]

An average of 713 mm of rain a year, spread over 120 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [9]

Rainfall measured at DOSNON, 8.8 km away at 115 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

What property sold for

13 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 107,000 € — 727 € per m² of built surface. [10]

The median across Aube is 1,324 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [10]

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.
