Vitality score
Vitality score 31.7/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 55 % of the 16,806 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
Where this sits nationally
An average of 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 49 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [13]
Measured at the LICQUES weather station, 4.8 km away at 73 m; the village itself is at 54 m. [13]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [13]
Humidity measured at CALAIS-MARCK, 19.2 km away at 2 m, over 29 summers. [13]
That station sits 52 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [13]
An average of 1,132 mm of rain a year, spread over 147 days — about 7.7 mm on a day it rains. [13]
Rainfall measured at LICQUES, 4.8 km away at 73 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 Bonningues-lès-Ardres'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.
