Vitality score
Vitality score 28.6/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).
Better served than 39 % of the 16,158 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.

Trajectory
Population 785 (2012) → 737 (2023): -6.1 % over 10 years. [5,1]
Population 685 (1990) → 737 (2023): 7.6 % over 30 years. [6,1]
Dwellings (2023): 466, of which 22.3 % second homes and 4.3 % vacant. [7]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Coteaux-sur-Loire): 3.2 km to the west (straight line). [8]
Food shop (Coteaux-sur-Loire): 1.6 km to the north-west (straight line). [8]
GP (Rivarennes): 3.4 km to the south (straight line). [9]
Pharmacy (Langeais): 4.8 km to the north-east (straight line). [10]
Primary school (Bréhémont): 0.1 km to the west (straight line). [11]
Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 55 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the LIGNIERES-DE-T. weather station, 3.6 km away at 32 m; the village itself is at 38 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at CHEILLE, 5.3 km away at 60 m, over 27 summers. [12]
An average of 704 mm of rain a year, spread over 112 days — about 6.3 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at LIGNIERES-DE-T., 3.6 km away at 32 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
61 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 140,649 € — 1,231 € per m² of built surface. [13]
The median across Indre-et-Loire is 1,846 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [13]
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 Bréhémont'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.
