Vitality score
Vitality score 46.5/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 26 % of the 3,899 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
An average of 52 days a year at or above 30 °C and 54 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the ST-M-D'HERES-GALOCHERE weather station, 6.7 km away at 220 m; the village itself is at 230 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at COL DE PORTE-NIVOSE, 10.6 km away at 1,325 m, over 17 summers. [11]
That station sits 1,095 m above 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 1,264 mm of rain a year, spread over 120 days — about 10.5 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at FONTANIL, 6.2 km away at 200 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
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 Saint-Martin-le-Vinoux'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.
