Vitality score
Vitality score 34.1/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 60 % of the 16,367 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.

GP (Brignon): 1.7 km to the south-east (straight line). [8]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 62 days a year at or above 30 °C and 44 days at or below 0 °C, over 29 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the LA ROUVIERE weather station, 8.5 km away at 79 m; the village itself is at 88 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 6 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at DEAUX, 9 km away at 185 m, over 30 summers. [12]
That station sits 97 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]
An average of 891 mm of rain a year, spread over 67 days — about 13.3 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at LA ROUVIERE, 8.5 km away at 79 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

…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 Cruviers-Lascours'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.
