Vitality score
Vitality score 43.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 24 % of the 5,757 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 23 days a year at or above 30 °C and 56 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the LOURY weather station, 9.7 km away at 130 m; the village itself is at 105 m. [10]
An average of 776 mm of rain a year, spread over 126 days — about 6.2 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at LOURY, 9.7 km away at 130 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
202 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 200,000 € — 1,433 € per m² of built surface. [11]
33 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 93,500 € — 1,744 € per m². [11]
The median across Loiret is 1,539 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [11]
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.
