Vitality score

Vitality score 25.5/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 54 % of the 18,033 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.

Population 441 (1990) → 400 (2023): -9.3 % over 30 years. ^[6,1]

Access and surroundings

Which way the everyday services lie

In the commune Primary school Bakery — 1.2 km EFood shop — 2.0 km SGP — 2.4 km SPharmacy — 4.2 km W 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 (Acq): 1.2 km to the east (straight line). ^[8]

Food shop (Haute-Avesnes): 2 km to the south (straight line). ^[9]

GP (Haute-Avesnes): 2.4 km to the south (straight line). ^[9]

Pharmacy (Aubigny-en-Artois): 4.2 km to the west (straight line). ^[10]

Primary school (Frévin-Capelle): 0 km to the west (straight line). ^[11]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 6.2

Days at or below 0 °C 31.8

Muggy days a summer 1.7

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 6 days a year at or above 30 °C and 32 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the SAULTY weather station, 16.5 km away at 174 m; the village itself is at 82 m. ^[12]

The village sits 92 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, 16.5 km away at 174 m, over 29 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 92 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 841 mm of rain a year, spread over 134 days — about 6.3 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at AUBIGNY, 3.4 km away at 96 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]

…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 Frévin-Capelle'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.
