Vitality score
Vitality score 22.8/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 60 % of the 17,415 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 30 days a year at or above 30 °C and 68 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the DOLE weather station, 10.2 km away at 212 m; the village itself is at 255 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at TAVAUX SA, 13.1 km away at 195 m, over 29 summers. [12]
That station sits 60 m below 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 1,088 mm of rain a year, spread over 141 days — about 7.7 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at CHATENOIS, 5.1 km away at 215 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 Rainans'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.
