Vitality score
Vitality score 4.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 1 % of the 15,747 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 31 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the PEUX-ET-COUFFOULEUX_SAPC weather station, 3.1 km away at 830 m; the village itself is at 638 m. [9]
The village sits 192 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. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at MONTLAUR, 11.7 km away at 374 m, over 23 summers. [9]
That station sits 264 m below 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 1,126 mm of rain a year, spread over 117 days — about 9.6 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at PEUX-ET-COUFFOULEUX_SAPC, 3.1 km away at 830 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
20 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 63,250 € — 673 € per m² of built surface. [10]
The median across Aveyron is 1,239 € 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.

…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 Mounes-Prohencoux'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.
