Vitality score
Vitality score 58.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 75 % of the 4,796 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 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 38 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the JUPILLES weather station, 12.1 km away at 148 m; the village itself is at 85 m. [10]
The village sits 63 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °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 LE MANS, 14.4 km away at 51 m, over 30 summers. [10]
An average of 752 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at ECOMMOY, 0.4 km away at 81 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
Uncertainties
The market day comes from DATAtourisme 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 Écommoy'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.
