Vitality score

Vitality score 17.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 67 % of the 12,401 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

Days at or above 30 °C 27.3

Days at or below 0 °C 27.9

Muggy days a summer 15.9▸

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 27 days a year at or above 30 °C and 28 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the BIDACHE weather station, 9.6 km away at 45 m; the village itself is at 71 m. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 16 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at AICIRITS, 10 km away at 75 m, over 30 summers. ^[11]

An average of 1,459 mm of rain a year, spread over 140 days — about 10.4 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at BIDACHE, 9.6 km away at 45 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

5 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 175,000 € — 804 € per m² of built surface. ^[12]

The median across Pyrénées-Atlantiques is 2,055 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[12]

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.

…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 Bergouey-Viellenave'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.
