Vitality score
Vitality score 61.4/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 83 % of the 4,790 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 2 days a year at or above 30 °C and 7 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the QUIBERON weather station, 1.5 km away at 33 m; the village itself is at 11 m. [10]
An average of 689 mm of rain a year, spread over 114 days — about 6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at QUIBERON, 1.5 km away at 33 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
481 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 437,500 € — 4,647 € per m² of built surface. [11]
615 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 225,000 € — 5,258 € per m². [11]
The median across Morbihan is 2,080 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.
