Vitality score
Vitality score 7.1/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 7 % of the 12,255 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
An average of 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 42 days at or below 0 °C, over 28 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the BENEVENT_SAPC weather station, 6.3 km away at 460 m; the village itself is at 441 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at BOURGANEUF, 15 km away at 513 m, over 30 summers. [12]
That station sits 72 m above 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 1,009 mm of rain a year, spread over 137 days — about 7.4 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at BENEVENT_SAPC, 6.3 km away at 460 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
11 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 70,000 € — 824 € per m² of built surface. [13]
The median across Creuse is 707 € 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.

…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 Ceyroux'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.
