Confidence: high.

Better served than 40 % of the 16,281 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.

Measured at the BERG weather station, 11.1 km away at 350 m; the village itself is at 269 m. ^[12]

The village sits 81 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.89 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. ^[12]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[12]

Humidity measured at BERG, 11.1 km away at 350 m, over 21 summers. ^[12]

That station sits 81 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[12]

An average of 822 mm of rain a year, spread over 127 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at BERG, 11.1 km away at 350 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]

What property sold for

No price figures: this département keeps the livre foncier rather than the cadastre, so its transactions are not published in DVF at all. ^[13]
