Vitality score
Vitality score 45.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 64 % of the 11,215 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 41 days a year at or above 30 °C and 31 days at or below 0 °C, over 22 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the LAROQUE-TIMBAUT weather station, 2.1 km away at 186 m; the village itself is at 209 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 9 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at PRAYSSAS, 15.6 km away at 196 m, over 16 summers. [10]
An average of 816 mm of rain a year, spread over 118 days — about 6.9 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at LAROQUE-TIMBAUT, 2.1 km away at 186 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
96 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 170,000 € — 1,164 € per m² of built surface. [11]
6 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 99,500 € — 722 € per m². [11]
The median across Lot-et-Garonne is 1,182 € 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.

…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 Laroque-Timbaut'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.
