Vitality score

Vitality score 31.5/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 6 % of the 6,948 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.

An average of 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 32 days at or below 0 °C, over 29 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. ^[10]

Humidity measured at NANTES-BOUGUENAIS, 17.9 km away at 26 m, over 30 summers. ^[10]

An average of 827 mm of rain a year, spread over 123 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at AIGREFEUILLE, 3.6 km away at 35 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]

…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 Maisdon-sur-Sèvre'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.
