Vitality score
Vitality score 55.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 65 % of the 4,798 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 61 days a year at or above 30 °C and 21 days at or below 0 °C, over 12 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the ROQUEFORT-LA-BEDOULE weather station, 4.2 km away at 354 m; the village itself is at 75 m. [11]
The village sits 279 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.21 °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 9 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CASSIS, 10.5 km away at 212 m, over 28 summers. [11]
That station sits 137 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 725 mm of rain a year, spread over 63 days — about 11.5 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at ROQUEFORT-LA-BEDOULE, 4.2 km away at 354 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
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 They may be separate markets in the same commune, or one may be out of date — all days are listed and none is treated as confirmed.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]

Matched on size, density, second homes and which everyday shops and services are present — not on the score, so a village of the same kind that is doing better or worse shows up rather than being hidden.

…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 Ceyreste'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.
