Vitality score
Vitality score 9.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 18 % of the 12,100 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
An average of 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 39 days at or below 0 °C, over 20 complete years in 1995–2024. [13]
Measured at the ST-LOUP-DU-DORAT weather station, 12.4 km away at 60 m; the village itself is at 82 m. [13]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [13]
Humidity measured at GREZ-EN-BOUERE, 17.4 km away at 93 m, over 21 summers. [13]
An average of 824 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 6.6 mm on a day it rains. [13]
Rainfall measured at ST-JEAN-SUR-ERV, 5.4 km away at 68 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [13]
What property sold for
6 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 93,288 € — 1,131 € per m² of built surface. [14]
The median across Mayenne is 1,254 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [14]
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 Bannes'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.
