Vitality score

Vitality score 50.9/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 81 % of the 13,191 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.

Market and village life

A market is recorded here, but no source gives the day. [5,6]

Trajectory

1968: 1,359 peak 1982: 1,467 2023: 1,205 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 1,175 (2012) → 1,205 (2023): 2.6 % over 10 years. [7,1]

Population 1,444 (1990) → 1,205 (2023): -16.6 % over 30 years. [8,1]

Dwellings (2023): 885, of which 18.2 % second homes and 14.2 % vacant. [9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 17 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]

Measured at the LUBERSAC weather station, 2.6 km away at 390 m; the village itself is at 414 m. [12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [12]

Humidity measured at LUBERSAC, 2.6 km away at 390 m, over 12 summers. [12]

An average of 1,146 mm of rain a year, spread over 134 days — about 8.6 mm on a day it rains. [12]

Rainfall measured at LUBERSAC, 2.6 km away at 390 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

What property sold for

99 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 97,000 € — 928 € per m² of built surface. [13]

13 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 58,000 € — 829 € per m². [13]

The median across Corrèze is 1,106 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [13]

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 Arnac-Pompadour'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.
