Vitality score
Vitality score 12.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 30 % of the 14,769 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 71 days a year at or above 30 °C and 74 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the MOROSAGLIA-GEND weather station, 3 km away at 198 m; the village itself is at 341 m. [9]
The village sits 143 m above 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 8 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at PIETRALBA, 10.4 km away at 510 m, over 30 summers. [9]
That station sits 169 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 721 mm of rain a year, spread over 71 days — about 10.2 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at PONTE-LECCIA_OBS, 2.9 km away at 203 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
