Vitality score
Vitality score 64.9/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 99 % of the 18,039 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
An average of 36 days a year at or above 30 °C and 13 days at or below 0 °C, over 19 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the LEVIE weather station, 5.2 km away at 571 m; the village itself is at 454 m. [9]
The village sits 117 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. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at SARTENE, 8.7 km away at 62 m, over 28 summers. [9]
That station sits 392 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 922 mm of rain a year, spread over 88 days — about 10.5 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at OLMICCIA, 0.9 km away at 364 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
12 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 210,000 € — 2,167 € per m² of built surface. [10]
17 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 55,000 € — 1,500 € per m². [10]
The median across Corse-du-Sud is 3,889 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [10]
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 Sainte-Lucie-de-Tallano'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.
