Vitality score
Vitality score 9/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 15 % of the 12,100 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 33 days a year at or above 30 °C and 21 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the LUPIAC weather station, 9 km away at 245 m; the village itself is at 176 m. [9]
The village sits 69 m below 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 10 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at PEYRUSSE-GRANDE, 13.1 km away at 254 m, over 30 summers. [9]
That station sits 78 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 762 mm of rain a year, spread over 111 days — about 6.9 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at VIC-FEZEN - DDE, 4.7 km away at 132 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Préneron'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.
