Vitality score
Vitality score 40.9/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 84 % of the 17,685 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 27 days a year at or above 30 °C and 33 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the SAUVETERRE-DE-G weather station, 13.2 km away at 75 m; the village itself is at 67 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 7 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at ST SULPICE DE POMMIERS, 15.5 km away at 82 m, over 23 summers. [11]
An average of 792 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at SAUVETERRE-DE-G, 13.2 km away at 75 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
39 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 180,000 € — 1,330 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Gironde is 2,989 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [12]
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 Pujols'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.
