Vitality score

Vitality score 8.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 24 % of the 6,293 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 50 days a year at or above 30 °C and 11 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [13]

Measured at the BOCOGNANO-GARE weather station, 10.1 km away at 660 m; the village itself is at 444 m. [13]

The village sits 216 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. [13]

An average of 1,093 mm of rain a year, spread over 96 days — about 11.4 mm on a day it rains. [13]

Rainfall measured at PASTRICCIOLA-GITE COMMUNAL, 3.3 km away at 554 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [13]
