Vitality score
Vitality score 15.1/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 33 % of the 16,761 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.

Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie

Food shop (La Fouillade): 8.4 km to the west (straight line). [8]
GP (Le Bas Ségala): 3.4 km to the north-west (straight line). [9]
Pharmacy (La Salvetat-Peyralès): 4.7 km to the east (straight line). [10]
Primary school (Lunac): 3 km to the west (straight line). [11]
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. [12]
Measured at the PRADINAS_SAPC weather station, 8.7 km away at 564 m; the village itself is at 508 m. [12]
The village sits 56 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. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at VILLEFRANCHE-DE-ROUERGUE, 18.5 km away at 330 m, over 30 summers. [12]
That station sits 178 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]
An average of 1,102 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 8.9 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at LA SALVETAT PEY, 3.5 km away at 550 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
16 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 83,000 € — 927 € per m² of built surface. [13]
The median across Aveyron is 1,239 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [13]
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.

…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 Lescure-Jaoul'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.
