Vitality score
Vitality score 49.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 93 % of the 17,522 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.

Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Salles-Curan): 7.5 km to the west (straight line). [8]
Food shop (Saint-Beauzély): 0.3 km to the south (straight line). [9]
GP (Saint-Beauzély): 0.2 km to the south (straight line). [9]
Pharmacy (Millau): 10.5 km to the south-east (straight line). [10]
Primary school (Saint-Beauzély): 0.1 km to the north-west (straight line). [9]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 39 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the MILLAU weather station, 7.2 km away at 712 m; the village itself is at 608 m. [11]
The village sits 104 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. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at MILLAU, 7.2 km away at 712 m, over 30 summers. [11]
That station sits 104 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 694 mm of rain a year, spread over 92 days — about 7.5 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at MILLAU, 7.2 km away at 712 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
41 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 132,000 € — 1,290 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Aveyron is 1,239 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [12]
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 Saint-Beauzély'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.
