Vitality score

Vitality score 27.7/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 57 % of the 17,920 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

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]

Measured at the CHATILLON-CIVC weather station, 9.5 km away at 153 m; the village itself is at 208 m. [12]

The village sits 55 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.89 °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 CHOUILLY, 19.6 km away at 172 m, over 20 summers. [12]

An average of 825 mm of rain a year, spread over 129 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [12]

Rainfall measured at IGNY-COMBLIZY, 0.4 km away at 225 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]

…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 Igny-Comblizy'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.
