Vitality score
Vitality score 70.8/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 72 % of the 990 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 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [14]
Measured at the BEGROLLES weather station, 7.1 km away at 100 m; the village itself is at 105 m. [14]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [14]
Humidity measured at CHOLET, 16.3 km away at 134 m, over 24 summers. [14]
An average of 776 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [14]
Rainfall measured at BEAUPREAU, 0.5 km away at 100 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [14]
What property sold for
1,255 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 160,000 € — 1,621 € per m² of built surface. [15]
128 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 90,000 € — 1,455 € per m². [15]
The median across Maine-et-Loire is 1,797 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [15]
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 Beaupréau-en-Mauges'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.
