Vitality score
Vitality score 51.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 63 % of the 6,800 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.

Weekly market (reported, unverified): Monday, Wednesday, Sunday après-midi ESPACE RAYMOND LACOMBE. [5,6,7]

Population 2,441 (1990) → 3,173 (2023): 30 % over 30 years. [9,1]
Dwellings (2023): 1,642, of which 4.3 % second homes and 8.8 % vacant. [10]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Baraqueville): 0.2 km to the south (straight line). [11]
Food shop (Baraqueville): 0.1 km to the south-west (straight line). [11]
GP (Baraqueville): 0.6 km to the east (straight line). [11]
Pharmacy (Luc-la-Primaube): 10 km to the east (straight line). [12]
Primary school (Baraqueville): 0.3 km to the south (straight line). [11]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 57 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [13]
Measured at the QUINS weather station, 5.8 km away at 607 m; the village itself is at 775 m. [13]
The village sits 168 m above 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. [13]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [13]
Humidity measured at RODEZ-AVEYRON, 15.3 km away at 578 m, over 28 summers. [13]
That station sits 197 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [13]
An average of 918 mm of rain a year, spread over 113 days — about 8.1 mm on a day it rains. [13]
Rainfall measured at QUINS, 5.8 km away at 607 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [13]
Uncertainties
Two sources name market days with none in common. They may be separate markets in the same commune, or one may be out of date — all days are listed and none is treated as confirmed. [5,6,7]

…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 Baraqueville'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.
