Vitality score
Vitality score 15/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 54 % of the 11,932 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
Where this sits nationally
An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the ESTERNAY weather station, 11 km away at 185 m; the village itself is at 213 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at ESTERNAY, 11 km away at 185 m, over 30 summers. [11]
An average of 743 mm of rain a year, spread over 123 days — about 6 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at CHARLEVILLE, 2.1 km away at 205 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
7 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 160,000 € — 1,667 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Marne is 1,798 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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 La Villeneuve-lès-Charleville'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.
