Vitality score
Vitality score 74.9/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Pharmacy).
Better served than 99 % of the 2,588 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.

Trajectory
Population 7,679 (2012) → 9,537 (2023): 24.2 % over 10 years. [8,1]
Population 5,029 (1990) → 9,537 (2023): 89.6 % over 30 years. [9,1]
Dwellings (2023): 4,826, of which 2.8 % second homes and 6.4 % vacant. [10]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (L'Isle-Jourdain): 0.1 km to the north (straight line). [11]
Food shop (L'Isle-Jourdain): 0.1 km to the south (straight line). [11]
GP (L'Isle-Jourdain): 0.6 km to the east (straight line). [11]
Pharmacy (L'Isle-Jourdain): 0.2 km to the east (straight line). [11]
Primary school (L'Isle-Jourdain): 0.1 km to the south-east (straight line). [11]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 48 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the ISLE-JOURDAIN weather station, 0.8 km away at 152 m; the village itself is at 150 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 9 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at LAHAS, 17.2 km away at 251 m, over 21 summers. [12]
That station sits 101 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 696 mm of rain a year, spread over 108 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at ISLE-JOURDAIN, 0.8 km away at 152 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
466 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 260,500 € — 2,532 € per m² of built surface. [13]
212 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 130,000 € — 2,296 € per m². [13]
The median across Gers is 1,285 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [13]
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.

…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 L'Isle-Jourdain'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.
