Vitality score
Vitality score 60.2/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 92 % of the 8,791 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 45 days a year at or above 30 °C and 20 days at or below 0 °C, over 12 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the ALERIA-CASABIANDA 3 weather station, 2.6 km away at 41 m; the village itself is at 9 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 45 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at ALISTRO, 16.3 km away at 65 m, over 30 summers. [9]
That station sits 56 m above 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 676 mm of rain a year, spread over 63 days — about 10.7 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at ALERIA-CASABIANDA 3, 2.6 km away at 41 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
