Vitality score
Vitality score 42.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 96 % of the 17,540 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 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 24 days at or below 0 °C, over 22 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the VENACO-GEND weather station, 8.9 km away at 615 m; the village itself is at 774 m. [10]
The village sits 159 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. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at BOCOGNANO, 14.2 km away at 1,019 m, over 16 summers. [10]
That station sits 245 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 1,141 mm of rain a year, spread over 93 days — about 12.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at GHISONI GEND, 8.6 km away at 658 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
8 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 82,500 € — 1,566 € per m² of built surface. [11]
9 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 42,000 € — 813 € per m². [11]
The median across Haute-Corse is 3,016 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [11]
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 Vezzani'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.
