Vitality score

Vitality score 52.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 77 % of the 9,765 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.

Access and surroundings

Which way the everyday services lie

2.5 km5 kmBakery — 2.8 km E (Sancé)

Bakery (Sancé): 2.8 km to the east (straight line). [8]

Food shop (Hurigny): 0.2 km to the south (straight line). [9]

GP (Hurigny): 0.1 km to the south (straight line). [9]

Primary school (Hurigny): 0.1 km to the south-east (straight line). [9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

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 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 50 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the MACON weather station, 6 km away at 219 m; the village itself is at 307 m. [10]

The village sits 88 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.55 °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 1 day a summer. [10]

Humidity measured at MACON, 6 km away at 219 m, over 30 summers. [10]

That station sits 88 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.06 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]

An average of 877 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 7.4 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at LA ROCHE VINEUSE, 5.1 km away at 265 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

Matched on size, density, second homes and which everyday shops and services are present — not on the score, so a village of the same kind that is doing better or worse shows up rather than being hidden.

…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 Hurigny'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.
