Vitality score
Vitality score 35/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 73 % of the 17,710 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.

Measured at the MONTERFIL weather station, 12.7 km away at 88 m; the village itself is at 68 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at MONTERFIL, 12.7 km away at 88 m, over 10 summers. [10]
An average of 784 mm of rain a year, spread over 130 days — about 6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at BOISGERVILLY, 2.9 km away at 83 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
30 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 200,000 € — 1,734 € per m² of built surface. [11]
The median across Ille-et-Vilaine is 2,168 € 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 Saint-Uniac'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.
