Vitality score
Vitality score 44/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 67 % of the 13,242 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
Bakery (Grésy-sur-Isère): 0.1 km to the south (straight line). [8]
Food shop (Montailleur): 1.4 km to the north-east (straight line). [9]
GP (Grésy-sur-Isère): 0 km to the north-east (straight line). [8]
Pharmacy (Frontenex): 5.7 km to the north-east (straight line). [10]

Climate
No climate figures: every nearby weather station sits more than 1,200 m above or below the village, so none of them describes its weather.
What property sold for
84 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 184,570 € — 2,209 € per m² of built surface. [11]
26 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 129,900 € — 2,038 € per m². [11]
The median across Savoie is 2,827 € per m², so this commune sits below 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.
Uncertainties
No specific uncertainties flagged.
