Vitality score
Vitality score 49.4/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 18 % of the 2,178 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 32 days a year at or above 30 °C and 28 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the TOULOUSE-BLAGNAC weather station, 11.2 km away at 151 m; the village itself is at 207 m. [10]
The village sits 56 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. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at TOULOUSE-BLAGNAC, 11.2 km away at 151 m, over 30 summers. [10]
That station sits 56 m below 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 679 mm of rain a year, spread over 101 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at CASTELGINEST, 5.9 km away at 130 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
Uncertainties
The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]

…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 Saint-Jean'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.
