Vitality score
Vitality score 37.6/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 50 % of the 13,376 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
An average of 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 21 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the NIELLES-LES-BLEQUIN_SAPC weather station, 15.3 km away at 145 m; the village itself is at 20 m. [10]
The village sits 125 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 1,013 mm of rain a year, spread over 141 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at NIELLES-LES-BLEQUIN_SAPC, 15.3 km away at 145 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
