Vitality score
Vitality score 33.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 83 % of the 17,908 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.

Where this sits nationally
An average of 39 days a year at or above 30 °C and 93 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the REMUZAT weather station, 2.3 km away at 475 m; the village itself is at 448 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at BESIGNAN, 10.7 km away at 556 m, over 30 summers. [12]
That station sits 108 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]
An average of 873 mm of rain a year, spread over 86 days — about 10.2 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at REMUZAT, 2.3 km away at 475 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

…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 Rémuzat'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.
