Vitality score
Vitality score 94.2/100 — Well served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 91 % of the 115 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 28 days a year at or above 30 °C and 79 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CRAN-GEVRIER weather station, 2.1 km away at 426 m; the village itself is at 448 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at MEYTHET, 4.2 km away at 455 m, over 29 summers. [11]
An average of 1,197 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 9.7 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at CRAN-GEVRIER, 2.1 km away at 426 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
897 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 660,000 € — 5,949 € per m² of built surface. [12]
8,725 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 289,000 € — 4,990 € per m². [12]
The median across Haute-Savoie is 4,214 € per m², so this commune sits above it. [12]
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.
