Vitality score

Vitality score 46.9/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 93 % of the 18,015 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.

In the commune Primary school, GP, Pharmacy Food shop — 6.0 km SWBakery — 6.9 km NW 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 (Bernécourt): 6.9 km to the north-west (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Royaumeix): 6 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]

GP (Domèvre-en-Haye): 0.1 km to the south-west (straight line). [10]

Climate

No climate figures: the nearest weather station is more than 20 km away, too far to describe this commune.

What property sold for

20 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 167,825 € — 1,101 € per m² of built surface. [11]

The median across Meurthe-et-Moselle is 1,727 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [11]

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.
