Vitality score

Vitality score 23.4/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 70 % of the 16,448 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.

An average of 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 74 days at or below 0 °C, over 29 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

An average of 1,195 mm of rain a year, spread over 135 days — about 8.9 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at SOURSAC, 7.1 km away at 528 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]
