Vitality score

Vitality score 12.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 18 % of the 17,540 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

Days at or above 30 °C 5.4

Days at or below 0 °C 34

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 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 34 days at or below 0 °C, over 22 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[9]

Measured at the FOUGERES weather station, 15.6 km away at 74 m; the village itself is at 171 m. ^[9]

The village sits 97 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. ^[9]

An average of 895 mm of rain a year, spread over 137 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. ^[9]

Rainfall measured at ST-CHRISTOPHE, 7.7 km away at 125 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[9]
