Vitality score
Vitality score 53.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 95 % of the 16,806 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.

Dwellings (2023): 285, of which 1.4 % second homes and 7.4 % vacant. [7]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Savignac): 2.1 km to the south-east (straight line). [8]

GP (Auros): 4.1 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]

Primary school (Savignac): 0.2 km to the north-east (straight line). [8]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 30 days a year at or above 30 °C and 44 days at or below 0 °C, over 15 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the ST-LOUBERT weather station, 6.1 km away at 34 m; the village itself is at 52 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 8 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at CAZATS, 9 km away at 114 m, over 23 summers. [10]
That station sits 62 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 801 mm of rain a year, spread over 118 days — about 6.8 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at AUROS, 4.3 km away at 102 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
35 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 230,000 € — 1,191 € 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.

…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 Savignac'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.
