Vitality score
Vitality score 54.1/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Supermarket).
Better served than 23 % of the 1,637 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 20 days a year at or above 30 °C and 68 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the MULHOUSE weather station, 5.6 km away at 245 m; the village itself is at 234 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at MULHOUSE, 5.6 km away at 245 m, over 30 summers. [10]
An average of 757 mm of rain a year, spread over 115 days — about 6.6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at MULHOUSE, 5.6 km away at 245 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]
Uncertainties
sources disagree on Supermarket
The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]

…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 Illzach'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.
