Vitality score
Vitality score 7.7/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 14 % of the 8,523 communes of a similar size.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 17 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the LEMBEYE weather station, 6.5 km away at 310 m; the village itself is at 258 m. [12]
The village sits 52 m below 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. [12]
An average of 1,091 mm of rain a year, spread over 133 days — about 8.2 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at LEMBEYE, 6.5 km away at 310 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
