Vitality score

Vitality score 15.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 28 % of the 17,659 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

Days at or above 30 °C 10.4

Days at or below 0 °C 51.1

Muggy days a summer 1.5

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 51 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the VERT TOULON-CIVC weather station, 0.6 km away at 155 m; the village itself is at 150 m. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at AVIZE, 18.4 km away at 115 m, over 22 summers. ^[11]

An average of 673 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at VERT TOULON-CIVC, 0.6 km away at 155 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

13 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 125,000 € — 969 € per m² of built surface. ^[12]

The median across Marne is 1,798 € 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.

…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 Vert-Toulon'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.
