Vitality score
Vitality score 22.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 48 % of the 18,049 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 37 days a year at or above 30 °C and 50 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the BEGAAR weather station, 9.5 km away at 19 m; the village itself is at 91 m. [11]
The village sits 72 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.94 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
An average of 1,118 mm of rain a year, spread over 134 days — about 8.3 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at MUGRON, 2.4 km away at 83 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
