Vitality score
Vitality score 48.7/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 47 % of the 6,151 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 6 days a year at or above 30 °C and 30 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the FRESNEY LE VIEU weather station, 7.8 km away at 175 m; the village itself is at 50 m. [10]
The village sits 125 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at ST SYLVAIN_SAPC, 19.7 km away at 62 m, over 14 summers. [10]
An average of 870 mm of rain a year, spread over 135 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at MONTIGNY, 7.7 km away at 151 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

…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 Thury-Harcourt-le-Hom'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.
