Vitality score

Confidence: high.

Better served than 54 % of the 15,984 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

An average of 49 days a year at or above 30 °C and 46 days at or below 0 °C, over 29 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[13]

Measured at the CAVILLARGUES weather station, 9.4 km away at 131 m; the village itself is at 213 m. ^[13]

The village sits 82 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.7 °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 6 days a summer. ^[13]

Humidity measured at CHUSCLAN, 14.7 km away at 30 m, over 26 summers. ^[13]

That station sits 183 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[13]

An average of 918 mm of rain a year, spread over 69 days — about 13.3 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at ST SIFFRET, 7.8 km away at 135 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[13]

What property sold for

61 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 244,000 € — 2,211 € per m² of built surface. ^[14]

The median across Gard is 2,338 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. ^[14]

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.
