Vitality score
Vitality score 31/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 61 % of the 17,689 communes of a similar size.

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, 16.2 km away at 145 m; the village itself is at 8 m. [10]
The village sits 137 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, 16.2 km away at 145 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
