Vitality score

Vitality score 21.8/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 24 % of the 16,841 communes of a similar size.

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 12.8

Days at or below 0 °C 76.6

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 77 days at or below 0 °C, over 13 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the COURCELLES-CHAUSSY weather station, 15.1 km away at 225 m; the village itself is at 262 m. ^[11]

An average of 869 mm of rain a year, spread over 135 days — about 6.4 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at ST HUBERT, 4.6 km away at 224 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

No price figures: this département keeps the livre foncier rather than the cadastre, so its transactions are not published in DVF at all. ^[12]

Uncertainties

No specific uncertainties flagged.
