Vitality score
Vitality score 5.2/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 9 % of the 4,093 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 34 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the BEAUCAIRE weather station, 4.2 km away at 120 m; the village itself is at 178 m. [9]
The village sits 58 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. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 14 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at COURRENSAN, 7.9 km away at 153 m, over 14 summers. [9]
An average of 776 mm of rain a year, spread over 117 days — about 6.6 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at BEAUCAIRE, 4.2 km away at 120 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
5 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 256,860 € — 1,567 € per m² of built surface. [10]
The median across Gers is 1,285 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [10]
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 Mansencôme'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.
