Vitality score

Confidence: high.

Better served than 67 % of the 17,966 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

An average of 17 days a year at or above 30 °C and 68 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the FAYET-LE-CHATEA weather station, 5.9 km away at 585 m; the village itself is at 687 m. ^[12]

The village sits 102 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °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 0 days a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at ISSOIRE, 16.2 km away at 372 m, over 28 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 315 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 878 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 7.3 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at FAYET-LE-CHATEA, 5.9 km away at 585 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]

What property sold for

36 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 114,750 € — 1,039 € per m² of built surface. ^[13]

The median across Puy-de-Dôme is 1,487 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[13]

These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.
