Vitality score
Vitality score 33.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 86 % of the 17,708 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 26 days a year at or above 30 °C and 24 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the PRADINAS_SAPC weather station, 7.5 km away at 564 m; the village itself is at 501 m. [10]
The village sits 63 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.7 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
An average of 1,015 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 8.5 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at PRADINAS_SAPC, 7.5 km away at 564 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
