Vitality score
Vitality score 33.5/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 77 % of the 17,999 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.

Rainfall measured at ST LAURENT - MF, 2.8 km away at 916 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
19 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 285,000 € — 1,353 € per m² of built surface. [10]
The median across Jura is 1,428 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [10]
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.

…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-Pierre'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.
