Vitality score

Confidence: high.

Better served than 53 % of the 17,645 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.

Climate

Measured at the SAULTY weather station, 9.5 km away at 174 m; the village itself is at 98 m. ^[12]

The village sits 76 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. ^[12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at SAULTY, 9.5 km away at 174 m, over 29 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 76 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 928 mm of rain a year, spread over 140 days — about 6.6 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at BOURET-SUR-CAN, 7.7 km away at 77 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]

What property sold for

23 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 107,495 € — 829 € per m² of built surface. ^[13]

The median across Pas-de-Calais is 1,534 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[13]

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.
