Vitality score

Vitality score 63.6/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 99 % of the 17,324 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.

Market and village life

Trajectory

1968: 206 2023: 571 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 370 (2012) → 571 (2023): 54.3 % over 10 years. [5,1]

Population 292 (1990) → 571 (2023): 95.5 % over 30 years. [6,1]

Dwellings (2023): 882, of which 68.1 % second homes and 0.2 % vacant. [7]

In the commune Food shop Primary school — 3.5 km EGP — 3.8 km SWPharmacy — 3.8 km SWBakery — 4.2 km W Straight-line, from the mairie, in the direction given. Services in the same town share a spoke. Distance is not travel time: a pass or an estuary can double it.

Bakery (Casaglione): 4.2 km to the west (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Casaglione): 0.1 km to the south-east (straight line). [8]

GP (Calcatoggio): 3.8 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 46 days a year at or above 30 °C and 1 day at or below 0 °C, over 15 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the SARI D'ORCINO weather station, 1.6 km away at 407 m; the village itself is at 254 m. [11]

The village sits 153 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.13 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 12 days a summer. [11]

Humidity measured at SARI D'ORCINO, 1.6 km away at 407 m, over 16 summers. [11]

That station sits 153 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]

An average of 898 mm of rain a year, spread over 82 days — about 11 mm on a day it rains. [11]

Rainfall measured at SARI D'ORCINO-ALZETO, 1.4 km away at 353 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

What property sold for

22 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 430,900 € — 3,344 € per m² of built surface. [12]

62 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 154,350 € — 4,401 € per m². [12]

The median across Corse-du-Sud is 3,889 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [12]

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 Casaglione'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.
