Vitality score

Vitality score 13.9/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 28 % of the 16,695 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.

Trajectory

1968: 404 2023: 226 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 245 (2012) → 226 (2023): -7.8 % over 10 years. ^[5,1]

Population 310 (1990) → 226 (2023): -27.1 % over 30 years. ^[6,1]

Dwellings (2023): 341, of which 49.9 % second homes and 8.5 % vacant. ^[7]

Which way the everyday services lie

Primary school — 2.7 km NEBakery — 3.8 km SWFood shop — 4.9 km EGP — 6.5 km NWPharmacy — 12.8 km E Straight-line, from the mairie, in the direction given. Services in the same town share a spoke. Distance is not travel time: a pass or an estuary can double it.

Bakery (Montreuillon): 3.8 km to the south-west (straight line). ^[8]

Food shop (Ouroux-en-Morvan): 4.9 km to the east (straight line). ^[9]

GP (Cervon): 6.5 km to the north-west (straight line). ^[10]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 12.6

Days at or below 0 °C 67

Muggy days a summer 1.5

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 67 days at or below 0 °C, over 22 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[13]

Measured at the MONTIGNY EN MORVAN_SAPC weather station, 5.1 km away at 285 m; the village itself is at 378 m. ^[13]

The village sits 93 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.55 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[13]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[13]

Humidity measured at LORMES_SAPC, 6.7 km away at 485 m, over 15 summers. ^[13]

That station sits 107 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.06 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[13]

An average of 1,103 mm of rain a year, spread over 143 days — about 7.7 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at MONTIGNY EN MORVAN_SAPC, 5.1 km away at 285 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[13]

…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 Mhère'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.
