Confidence: high.

Better served than 86 % of the 17,610 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 at the OLETTA weather station, 6.5 km away at 130 m; the village itself is at 545 m. ^[13]

The village sits 415 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. ^[13]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. ^[13]

Humidity measured at OLETTA, 6.5 km away at 130 m, over 11 summers. ^[13]

That station sits 415 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[13]

An average of 737 mm of rain a year, spread over 71 days — about 10.4 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at MURATO-BOURG, 3.4 km away at 530 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[13]
