Vitality score

Vitality score 3.8/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 1 % of the 11,821 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 15 days a year at or above 30 °C and 63 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]

Measured at the CAMPS weather station, 7.9 km away at 519 m; the village itself is at 526 m. [12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [12]

Humidity measured at ARGENTAT, 14.4 km away at 190 m, over 29 summers. [12]

That station sits 336 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.46 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]

An average of 1,422 mm of rain a year, spread over 136 days — about 10.5 mm on a day it rains. [12]

Rainfall measured at CAMPS, 7.9 km away at 519 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

What property sold for

13 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 90,000 € — 1,255 € per m² of built surface. [13]

The median across Corrèze is 1,106 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.

Uncertainties

No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Saint-Julien-le-Pèlerin'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.
