Vitality score
Vitality score 50.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 46 % of the 4,973 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 19 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the LIMONEST weather station, 4.5 km away at 365 m; the village itself is at 350 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at LUCENAY, 10.3 km away at 255 m, over 20 summers. [10]
That station sits 95 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 820 mm of rain a year, spread over 107 days — about 7.7 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at LIMONEST, 4.5 km away at 365 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
179 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 611,100 € — 3,737 € per m² of built surface. [11]
139 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 222,000 € — 4,153 € per m². [11]
The median across Rhône is 3,334 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [11]
These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.

…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 La Tour-de-Salvagny'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.
