Vitality score

Vitality score 57.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 89 % of the 10,866 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 Bakery, Food shop, Primary school GP — 0.5 km NEPharmacy — 4.8 km NW 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 (Étauliers): 0.1 km to the north (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Étauliers): 0.4 km to the north (straight line). [8]

GP (Étauliers): 0.5 km to the north-east (straight line). [8]

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 35 days a year at or above 30 °C and 38 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the DONNEZAC weather station, 10.4 km away at 62 m; the village itself is at 7 m. [10]

The village sits 55 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.94 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]

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

Humidity measured at ST-SAVIN, 14.1 km away at 90 m, over 17 summers. [10]

That station sits 83 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.46 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]

An average of 858 mm of rain a year, spread over 122 days — about 7 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at ETAULIERS, 0.1 km away at 7 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

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 Étauliers'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.
