Vitality score
Vitality score 32.7/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 37 % of the 13,745 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 27 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 23 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the BENEJACQ weather station, 9.2 km away at 255 m; the village itself is at 245 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 14 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at GER, 13.7 km away at 410 m, over 18 summers. [10]
That station sits 165 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 5.46 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 1,243 mm of rain a year, spread over 133 days — about 9.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at ANDOINS, 4.3 km away at 314 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

…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 Artigueloutan'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.
