Vitality score

Vitality score 25.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 42 % of the 17,427 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

An average of 64 days a year at or above 30 °C and 59 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

Measured at the MONTCLUS weather station, 3.8 km away at 120 m; the village itself is at 115 m. ^[10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 4 days a summer. ^[10]

Humidity measured at MEJANNES-LE-CLAP, 10.4 km away at 313 m, over 30 summers. ^[10]

That station sits 198 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[10]

An average of 953 mm of rain a year, spread over 74 days — about 12.9 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at MONTCLUS, 3.8 km away at 120 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]

What property sold for

62 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 219,978 € — 2,219 € per m² of built surface. ^[11]

The median across Gard is 2,338 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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.
