Better served than 56 % of the 15,966 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.

Climate

An average of 19 days a year at or above 30 °C and 56 days at or below 0 °C, over 21 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the BOURGOIN weather station, 13.5 km away at 358 m; the village itself is at 519 m. ^[11]

The village sits 161 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °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 BOURGOIN, 13.5 km away at 358 m, over 20 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 161 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 925 mm of rain a year, spread over 106 days — about 8.7 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at ST-JEAN-DE-BOURNAY, 7.3 km away at 369 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

30 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 285,000 € — 2,282 € per m² of built surface. ^[12]

The median across Isère is 2,542 € per m², so this commune sits below 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.
