Vitality score
Vitality score 28.7/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 88 % of the 15,549 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 49 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the BURE LES TEMPLIERS_SAPC weather station, 11.6 km away at 461 m; the village itself is at 399 m. [12]
The village sits 62 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. [12]
An average of 1,011 mm of rain a year, spread over 150 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at ECHALOT, 6.1 km away at 440 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
