Vitality score
Vitality score 13.9/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 38 % of the 14,672 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 31 days a year at or above 30 °C and 27 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the SAINT-MARTIN-CURTO weather station, 8.5 km away at 144 m; the village itself is at 152 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at MARMANDE, 17.7 km away at 30 m, over 19 summers. [9]
That station sits 122 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.46 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 750 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at BOUGLON, 8 km away at 136 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
12 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 104,615 € — 1,322 € per m² of built surface. [10]
The median across Lot-et-Garonne is 1,182 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [10]
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 Romestaing'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.
