Vitality score
Vitality score 10.5/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 36 % of the 8,064 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 17 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CHAUMONT_SAPC weather station, 10.6 km away at 294 m; the village itself is at 269 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CHAUMONT - SA, 11.3 km away at 240 m, over 11 summers. [11]
An average of 845 mm of rain a year, spread over 133 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at ST MIHIEL, 10.2 km away at 226 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
5 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 141,500 € — 1,000 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Meuse is 893 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [12]
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 Lahaymeix'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.
