Vitality score

Vitality score 53.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 53 % of the 4,501 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.

Market and village life

Monthly market (reported, unverified): Saturday 8h30 à 13h place de la Mairie. See the source for which week of the month. [5]

Trajectory

1968: 1,336 2023: 5,225 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 4,868 (2012) → 5,225 (2023): 7.3 % over 10 years. [6,1]

Population 2,973 (1990) → 5,225 (2023): 75.7 % over 30 years. [7,1]

Dwellings (2023): 2,322, of which 1.5 % second homes and 4.6 % vacant. [8]

Access and surroundings

Which way the everyday services lie

2.5 km5 kmPharmacy — 4.0 km N (Pont-Péan)
In the commune Bakery, Food shop, Primary school, GP Pharmacy — 4.0 km N 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 (Laillé): 0.1 km to the north (straight line). [9]

Food shop (Laillé): 0.1 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]

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

Pharmacy (Pont-Péan): 4 km to the north (straight line). [10]

Primary school (Laillé): 0.3 km to the north-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 8 days a year at or above 30 °C and 34 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the RENNES-ST JACQUES weather station, 10.1 km away at 36 m; the village itself is at 108 m. [11]

The village sits 72 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]

Humidity measured at RENNES-ST JACQUES, 10.1 km away at 36 m, over 30 summers. [11]

That station sits 72 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]

An average of 844 mm of rain a year, spread over 131 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]

Rainfall measured at GUICHEN, 5.3 km away at 52 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

What property sold for

277 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 312,000 € — 2,564 € per m² of built surface. [12]

81 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 128,000 € — 2,693 € per m². [12]

The median across Ille-et-Vilaine is 2,168 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.

Uncertainties

The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]

…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 Laillé'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.
