Vitality score 7.8/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 48 % of the 631 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 17 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the BURE LES TEMPLIERS_SAPC weather station, 18.3 km away at 461 m; the village itself is at 277 m. [11]
The village sits 184 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.55 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
An average of 1,065 mm of rain a year, spread over 144 days — about 7.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at GURGY-LA-VILLE, 4.5 km away at 301 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
