Vitality score

Vitality score 37.5/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 64 % of the 15,654 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.

An average of 19 days a year at or above 30 °C and 62 days at or below 0 °C, over 22 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 4 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at STATTMATTEN SA, 7.5 km away at 121 m, over 11 summers. ^[11]

An average of 847 mm of rain a year, spread over 142 days — about 6 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at SELTZ, 6.1 km away at 120 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

…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 Forstfeld'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.
