Vitality score
Vitality score 60.8/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Grocery (épicerie / supérette)).
Better served than 83 % of the 5,475 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 67 days a year at or above 30 °C and 53 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the LA DESTROUSSE_SAPC weather station, 1.1 km away at 201 m; the village itself is at 192 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at AUBAGNE, 7.8 km away at 130 m, over 30 summers. [9]
That station sits 62 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 693 mm of rain a year, spread over 64 days — about 10.8 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at LA DESTROUSSE_SAPC, 1.1 km away at 201 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 La Destrousse'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.
