Vitality score
Vitality score 68.6/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Grocery (épicerie / supérette)).
Better served than 93 % of the 2,647 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.

Market and village life
Weekly market (reported, unverified): Saturday le samedi matin place Saint-Pol pour les commerces alimentaires, et toutes la journe sur la place du 11-Août, pour les commerces de produits manufacturés. [5]
Trajectory
Population 10,643 (2012) → 9,292 (2023): -12.7 % over 10 years. [6,1]
Population 11,591 (1990) → 9,292 (2023): -19.8 % over 30 years. [7,1]
Dwellings (2023): 5,706, of which 4.6 % second homes and 13.9 % vacant. [8]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Nogent-le-Rotrou): 0.1 km to the west (straight line). [9]

GP (Nogent-le-Rotrou): 0.2 km to the south (straight line). [9]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 53 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the NOGENT weather station, 1.8 km away at 131 m; the village itself is at 116 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at NOGENT, 1.8 km away at 131 m, over 16 summers. [10]
An average of 716 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at NOGENT, 1.8 km away at 131 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
495 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 117,000 € — 1,292 € per m² of built surface. [11]
273 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 63,000 € — 1,054 € per m². [11]
The median across Eure-et-Loir is 1,591 € per m², so this commune sits below 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.
Uncertainties
sources disagree on Grocery (épicerie / supérette)
The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]

…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 Nogent-le-Rotrou'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.
