Vitality score

Vitality score 35.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 64 % of the 16,277 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

Days at or above 30 °C 40.8

Days at or below 0 °C 40.5

Muggy days a summer 6

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 41 days a year at or above 30 °C and 41 days at or below 0 °C, over 24 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the AIGUILLON weather station, 8.8 km away at 32 m; the village itself is at 94 m. ^[11]

The village sits 62 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]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 6 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at FARGUES-SUR-OURBISE, 11.2 km away at 124 m, over 11 summers. ^[11]

An average of 787 mm of rain a year, spread over 118 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at VILLEFRANCHE QU, 5.8 km away at 100 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

…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 Puch-d'Agenais'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.
