Vitality score

Vitality score 51.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 47 % of the 3,323 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.

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 9.5

Days at or below 0 °C 25.6

Muggy days a summer 2.3

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 26 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[9]

Measured at the ST NAZAIRE-MONTOIR weather station, 1.5 km away at 3 m; the village itself is at 9 m. ^[9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[9]

Humidity measured at ST NAZAIRE-MONTOIR, 1.5 km away at 3 m, over 30 summers. ^[9]

An average of 798 mm of rain a year, spread over 117 days — about 6.8 mm on a day it rains. ^[9]

Rainfall measured at ST NAZAIRE-MONTOIR, 1.5 km away at 3 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[9]

…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 Montoir-de-Bretagne'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.
