Vitality score

Vitality score 41/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 21 % of the 6,210 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.

Population 4,754 (1990) → 3,550 (2023): -25.3 % over 30 years. [6,1]

Dwellings (2023): 2,108, of which 2.4 % second homes and 15 % vacant. [7]

Access and surroundings

Which way the everyday services lie

2.5 km5 kmGP — 0.5 km W (Nogent)
In the commune Bakery, Food shop, Primary school, Pharmacy GP — 0.5 km W Straight-line, from the mairie, in the direction given. Services in the same town share a spoke. Distance is not travel time: a pass or an estuary can double it.

Bakery (Nogent): 0.2 km to the north (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Nogent): 0.3 km to the north (straight line). [8]

GP (Nogent): 0.5 km to the west (straight line). [8]

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 9 days a year at or above 30 °C and 71 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]

Measured at the IS-EN-BASSIGNY weather station, 8.5 km away at 403 m; the village itself is at 397 m. [9]

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

Humidity measured at IS-EN-BASSIGNY, 8.5 km away at 403 m, over 30 summers. [9]

An average of 1,028 mm of rain a year, spread over 141 days — about 7.3 mm on a day it rains. [9]

Rainfall measured at BIESLES, 7.5 km away at 387 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

What property sold for

225 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 75,050 € — 803 € per m² of built surface. [10]

35 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 50,000 € — 943 € per m². [10]

The median across Haute-Marne is 833 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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.

No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Nogent'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.
