Vitality score
Vitality score 21.6/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 59 % of the 17,145 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 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 79 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the NOMENY weather station, 3.3 km away at 208 m; the village itself is at 194 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at CHAMPENOUX-ARBO-INRAE, 19 km away at 255 m, over 17 summers. [10]
That station sits 61 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 704 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at NOMENY, 3.3 km away at 208 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

…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 Mailly-sur-Seille'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.
