Vitality score

Vitality score 48.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 55 % of the 7,393 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.

Food shop (Vieux-Thann): 0.4 km to the south-west (straight line). ^[8]

GP (Vieux-Thann): 0 km to the north (straight line). ^[8]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 16.4

Days at or below 0 °C 61.8

Muggy days a summer 0.9

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 62 days at or below 0 °C, over 13 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[9]

Measured at the THANN weather station, 1.2 km away at 338 m; the village itself is at 327 m. ^[9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. ^[9]

Humidity measured at MULHOUSE, 14 km away at 245 m, over 30 summers. ^[9]

That station sits 82 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[9]

An average of 1,080 mm of rain a year, spread over 129 days — about 8.4 mm on a day it rains. ^[9]

Rainfall measured at THANN, 1.2 km away at 338 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[9]

…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 Vieux-Thann'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.
