Vitality score
Vitality score 65/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 86 % of the 2,792 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 27 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the POUANCE_SAPC weather station, 1.8 km away at 96 m; the village itself is at 74 m. [11]
An average of 756 mm of rain a year, spread over 117 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at POUANCE, 0.5 km away at 69 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
672 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 112,500 € — 1,020 € per m² of built surface. [12]
37 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 105,300 € — 994 € per m². [12]
The median across Maine-et-Loire is 1,797 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [12]
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.
Uncertainties
The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [6]
