Vitality score

Confidence: high.

Better served than 81 % of the 11,635 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 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 45 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[9]

Measured at the VERT TOULON-CIVC weather station, 12.9 km away at 155 m; the village itself is at 103 m. ^[9]

The village sits 52 m below 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. ^[9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[9]

Humidity measured at ESTERNAY, 19.7 km away at 185 m, over 30 summers. ^[9]

That station sits 82 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[9]

An average of 756 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 6.1 mm on a day it rains. ^[9]

Rainfall measured at SEZANNE, 8 km away at 120 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[9]

What property sold for

8 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 104,250 € — 850 € per m² of built surface. ^[10]

The median across Marne is 1,798 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[10]

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.
