Vitality score

Vitality score 48.9/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 88 % of the 15,780 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.

Bakery (Saint-Vran): 0.2 km to the north-west (straight line). ^[8]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 4.7

Days at or below 0 °C 33.1

Muggy days a summer 0.2

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 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 33 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the MERDRIGNAC weather station, 5.8 km away at 145 m; the village itself is at 206 m. ^[11]

The village sits 61 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at TREMEUR, 16.7 km away at 69 m, over 12 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 137 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 1,001 mm of rain a year, spread over 144 days — about 7 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at SAINT-VRAN, 3.8 km away at 282 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

…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-Vran'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.
