Confidence: high.

Better served than 60 % of the 16,227 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

An average of 4 days a year at or above 30 °C and 22 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the COUTANCES weather station, 6.5 km away at 80 m; the village itself is at 27 m. ^[12]

The village sits 53 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at GOUVILLE, 10.7 km away at 7 m, over 21 summers. ^[12]

An average of 1,089 mm of rain a year, spread over 153 days — about 7.1 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at COUTANCES, 6.5 km away at 80 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]

What property sold for

83 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 238,300 € — 2,289 € per m² of built surface. ^[13]

The median across Manche is 1,444 € per m², so this commune sits above it. ^[13]

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.
