Vitality score

Vitality score 46/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 66 % of the 11,608 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

An average of 8 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 18 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[10]

Measured at the LE HOHWALD weather station, 12.6 km away at 785 m; the village itself is at 243 m. ^[10]

The village sits 542 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. ^[10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. ^[10]

Humidity measured at WANGENBOURG_SAPC, 12.9 km away at 460 m, over 20 summers. ^[10]

That station sits 217 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[10]

An average of 1,185 mm of rain a year, spread over 144 days — about 8.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[10]

Rainfall measured at RUSS, 6.1 km away at 284 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[10]

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. ^[11]
