Vitality score

Vitality score 46.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 69 % of the 11,972 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

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 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 58 days at or below 0 °C, over 23 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the CHAMBERET weather station, 1 km away at 444 m; the village itself is at 448 m. [10]

An average of 1,304 mm of rain a year, spread over 141 days — about 9.2 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at CHAMBERET, 1 km away at 444 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

What property sold for

161 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 90,000 € — 880 € per m² of built surface. [11]

The median across Corrèze is 1,106 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [11]

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.
