Vitality score
Vitality score 17.7/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 76 % of the 10,519 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 24 days a year at or above 30 °C and 79 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the FRAISANS weather station, 14.3 km away at 254 m; the village itself is at 231 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at ARBOIS_SAPC, 15 km away at 313 m, over 21 summers. [12]
That station sits 82 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.06 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [12]
An average of 1,157 mm of rain a year, spread over 141 days — about 8.2 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at CHISSEY, 1.9 km away at 226 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

…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 Chatelay'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.
