Vitality score
Vitality score 42.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 52 % of the 10,536 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 3 days a year at or above 30 °C and 145 days at or below 0 °C, over 24 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the LES ROUSSES weather station, 8.5 km away at 1,110 m; the village itself is at 1,061 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at ST LAURENT - SA, 15.3 km away at 880 m, over 10 summers. [9]
That station sits 181 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.06 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 2,000 mm of rain a year, spread over 153 days — about 13.1 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at BELLEFONTAINE, 6.3 km away at 1,030 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Bois-d'Amont'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.
