Vitality score

Vitality score 11/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 35 % of the 9,787 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

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 30 days a year at or above 30 °C and 37 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the POMPS weather station, 15.2 km away at 130 m; the village itself is at 197 m. [11]

The village sits 67 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 4.94 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 13 days a summer. [11]

Humidity measured at PAU-UZEIN, 16.9 km away at 183 m, over 30 summers. [11]

An average of 1,065 mm of rain a year, spread over 128 days — about 8.3 mm on a day it rains. [11]

Rainfall measured at GARLIN, 7.7 km away at 209 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

What property sold for

No price figures: fewer than five comparable sales were registered here between 2021 and 2025. A median of two sales is not a median. [12]

Uncertainties

No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Coublucq'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.
