Vitality score

Vitality score 31.6/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 35 % of the 14,114 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 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 53 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

Measured at the BRIONNE weather station, 18.9 km away at 59 m; the village itself is at 132 m. ^[10]

The village sits 73 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. ^[10]

An average of 846 mm of rain a year, spread over 138 days — about 6.1 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at ROUTOT, 1.9 km away at 136 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]

What property sold for

59 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 189,000 € — 1,392 € per m² of built surface. ^[11]

The median across Eure is 1,500 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. ^[11]

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.
