Vitality score

Vitality score 62.5/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 95 % of the 9,172 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.

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 75 days a year at or above 30 °C and 1 day at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the CONCA weather station, 4.7 km away at 253 m; the village itself is at 83 m. [10]

The village sits 170 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. [10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 31 days a summer. [10]

Humidity measured at CONCA, 4.7 km away at 253 m, over 26 summers. [10]

That station sits 170 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]

An average of 838 mm of rain a year, spread over 74 days — about 11.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at CONCA, 4.7 km away at 253 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
