Vitality score

Vitality score 5.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 2 % of the 15,019 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

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 11 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the BELLEME_SAPC weather station, 7.9 km away at 168 m; the village itself is at 114 m. [10]

The village sits 54 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]

An average of 819 mm of rain a year, spread over 130 days — about 6.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at BELLEME_SAPC, 7.9 km away at 168 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
