Vitality score

Vitality score 59.1/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 95 % of the 14,587 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.

Population 701 (1990) → 959 (2023): 36.8 % over 30 years. [6,1]

Access and surroundings

Bakery (Rauzan): 5.1 km to the north-west (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Blasimon): 0.1 km to the east (straight line). [9]

GP (Blasimon): 0 km to the west (straight line). [9]

Primary school (Blasimon): 0.3 km to the south-east (straight line). [9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

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 27 days a year at or above 30 °C and 33 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the SAUVETERRE-DE-G weather station, 5.8 km away at 75 m; the village itself is at 65 m. [10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 7 days a summer. [10]

Humidity measured at ST SULPICE DE POMMIERS, 8 km away at 82 m, over 23 summers. [10]

An average of 792 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at SAUVETERRE-DE-G, 5.8 km away at 75 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

What property sold for

47 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 170,500 € — 870 € per m² of built surface. [11]

The median across Gironde is 2,989 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [11]

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.

Uncertainties

No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Blasimon'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.
