Vitality score
Vitality score 19/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 83 % of the 9,584 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 11 days a year at or above 30 °C and 89 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the BADONVILLER weather station, 4.2 km away at 336 m; the village itself is at 434 m. [9]
The village sits 98 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.89 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at ST MAURICE, 8.2 km away at 305 m, over 23 summers. [9]
That station sits 129 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 1,063 mm of rain a year, spread over 147 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at BADONVILLER, 4.2 km away at 336 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
11 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 131,100 € — 1,235 € per m² of built surface. [10]
The median across Meurthe-et-Moselle is 1,727 € per m², so this commune sits below 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.

…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 Pierre-Percée'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.
