Vitality score
Vitality score 41.7/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 82 % of the 16,983 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 43 days at or below 0 °C, over 20 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CHOUILLY weather station, 7.7 km away at 172 m; the village itself is at 178 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CHOUILLY, 7.7 km away at 172 m, over 20 summers. [11]
An average of 711 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at DIZY, 2.2 km away at 92 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
40 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 206,625 € — 2,212 € per m² of built surface. [12]
5 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 88,500 € — 2,107 € per m². [12]
The median across Marne is 1,798 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.

…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 Hautvillers'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.
