Vitality score
Vitality score 44.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 32 % of the 6,376 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 (Saint-Yvi): 0.2 km to the east (straight line). [8]
Food shop (Saint-Yvi): 0 km to the north-east (straight line). [8]
GP (Saint-Yvi): 0.3 km to the west (straight line). [8]
Pharmacy (La Forêt-Fouesnant): 7.3 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]
Primary school (Saint-Yvi): 0.2 km to the north-west (straight line). [8]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 6 days a year at or above 30 °C and 34 days at or below 0 °C, over 23 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the MELGVEN weather station, 12.1 km away at 83 m; the village itself is at 119 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at PLOMELIN-INRAE, 14.4 km away at 33 m, over 24 summers. [10]
That station sits 86 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 1,315 mm of rain a year, spread over 153 days — about 8.6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at ELLIANT, 5.4 km away at 120 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
136 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 220,000 € — 1,778 € per m² of built surface. [11]
The median across Finistère is 1,821 € 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.

…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 Saint-Yvi'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.
