Vitality score

Vitality score 35.4/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 41 % of the 12,900 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.

In the commune Food shop, Primary school, GP Bakery — 3.9 km EPharmacy — 4.9 km NE Straight-line, from the mairie, in the direction given. Services in the same town share a spoke. Distance is not travel time: a pass or an estuary can double it.

Bakery (Montesquieu-Lauragais): 3.9 km to the east (straight line). ^[8]

Food shop (Saint-Léon): 0.1 km to the south (straight line). ^[9]

GP (Saint-Léon): 0.1 km to the south-west (straight line). ^[9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 30.3

Days at or below 0 °C 32.6

Muggy days a summer 5.7

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 30 days a year at or above 30 °C and 33 days at or below 0 °C, over 21 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the AUZEVILLE-TOLOSANE-INRAE weather station, 14.9 km away at 150 m; the village itself is at 252 m. ^[11]

The village sits 102 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. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 6 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at AUZEVILLE-TOLOSANE-INRAE, 14.9 km away at 150 m, over 22 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 102 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 740 mm of rain a year, spread over 96 days — about 7.7 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at AURAGNE PONTIES, 3.5 km away at 240 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

…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-Léon'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.
