Vitality score
Vitality score 15.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 37 % of the 16,342 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
An average of 35 days a year at or above 30 °C and 21 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the LAGRASSE weather station, 3.9 km away at 130 m; the village itself is at 147 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 11 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at ARQUETTES-EN-VAL, 9.5 km away at 240 m, over 18 summers. [9]
That station sits 93 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 672 mm of rain a year, spread over 80 days — about 8.4 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at LAGRASSE, 3.9 km away at 130 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Saint-Pierre-des-Champs'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.
