Vitality score
Vitality score 58.4/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Pharmacy).
Better served than 55 % of the 2,295 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 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 8 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the SOCOA weather station, 3.7 km away at 21 m; the village itself is at 32 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 22 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at SOCOA, 3.7 km away at 21 m, over 30 summers. [9]
An average of 1,517 mm of rain a year, spread over 140 days — about 10.8 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at SOCOA, 3.7 km away at 21 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
264 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 590,275 € — 4,107 € per m² of built surface. [10]
452 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 224,425 € — 4,128 € per m². [10]
The median across Pyrénées-Atlantiques is 2,055 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [10]
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 Urrugne'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.
