Vitality score

Vitality score 11/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 32 % of the 11,027 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.

Access and surroundings

Which way the everyday services lie

In the commune Primary school Food shop — 2.3 km NGP — 3.1 km NPharmacy — 5.1 km NWBakery — 5.2 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 (Ferfay): 5.2 km to the east (straight line). ^[8]

Food shop (Westrehem): 2.3 km to the north (straight line). ^[9]

GP (Ligny-lès-Aire): 3.1 km to the north (straight line). ^[10]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 7.2

Days at or below 0 °C 39.6

Muggy days a summer 0.3

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 7 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 28 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[13]

Measured at the FIEFS weather station, 3.2 km away at 180 m; the village itself is at 112 m. ^[13]

The village sits 68 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. ^[13]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. ^[13]

Humidity measured at LILLERS, 11.8 km away at 19 m, over 23 summers. ^[13]

That station sits 93 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 1,097 mm of rain a year, spread over 152 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[13]

Rainfall measured at FIEFS, 3.2 km away at 180 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 Fontaine-lès-Hermans'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.
