Vitality score
Vitality score 34.8/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 28 % of the 10,753 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.

Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Le Thil): 4.5 km to the north-east (straight line). [9]
Food shop (Écouis): 4.7 km to the north-west (straight line). [10]
GP (Les Andelys): 7.2 km to the south-west (straight line). [11]
Pharmacy (Écouis): 5.2 km to the north-west (straight line). [10]
Primary school (Frenelles-en-Vexin): 0 km to the south (straight line). [12]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 11 days a year at or above 30 °C and 51 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [13]
Measured at the LES ANDELYS weather station, 7.9 km away at 16 m; the village itself is at 153 m. [13]
The village sits 137 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. [13]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [13]
Humidity measured at MUIDS, 17.4 km away at 31 m, over 19 summers. [13]
That station sits 122 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [13]
An average of 742 mm of rain a year, spread over 127 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. [13]
Rainfall measured at LES ANDELYS, 7.9 km away at 16 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [13]
What property sold for
89 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 185,000 € — 1,631 € per m² of built surface. [14]
The median across Eure is 1,500 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [14]
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 Frenelles-en-Vexin'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.
