Confidence: high.

Better served than 73 % of the 15,747 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.

Climate

An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 45 days at or below 0 °C, over 18 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the CANAPPEVILLE weather station, 4.1 km away at 145 m; the village itself is at 36 m. ^[12]

The village sits 109 m below 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. ^[12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at EVREUX-HUEST, 13.9 km away at 138 m, over 30 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 102 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 737 mm of rain a year, spread over 128 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at CANAPPEVILLE, 4.1 km away at 145 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 155,000 € — 1,641 € per m² of built surface. ^[13]

The median across Eure is 1,500 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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.
