Vitality score
Vitality score 51.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Pharmacy).
Better served than 15 % of the 1,600 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.

Market and village life
Market day: unknown — nothing found in the datasets or on the commune website.
Trajectory
Population 12,953 (2012) → 15,251 (2023): 17.7 % over 10 years. [5,1]
Population 12,878 (1990) → 15,251 (2023): 18.4 % over 30 years. [6,1]
Dwellings (2023): 7,533, of which 1.1 % second homes and 3 % vacant. [7]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 15 days a year at or above 30 °C and 31 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the BEAUCOUZE weather station, 3.4 km away at 50 m; the village itself is at 46 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at BEAUCOUZE, 3.4 km away at 50 m, over 30 summers. [9]
An average of 702 mm of rain a year, spread over 111 days — about 6.3 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at BEAUCOUZE, 3.4 km away at 50 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
604 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 310,000 € — 2,924 € per m² of built surface. [10]
534 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 169,000 € — 2,892 € per m². [10]
The median across Maine-et-Loire is 1,797 € 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 Avrillé'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.
