Vitality score
Vitality score 62/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 87 % of the 5,862 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 45 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the MALANCOURT weather station, 5.3 km away at 346 m; the village itself is at 167 m. [11]
The village sits 179 m below 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. [11]
An average of 905 mm of rain a year, spread over 136 days — about 6.7 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at MALANCOURT, 5.3 km away at 346 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
Uncertainties
The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]
