Vitality score
Vitality score 62.2/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 94 % of the 8,804 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 28 days a year at or above 30 °C and 39 days at or below 0 °C, over 20 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the USINENS SA weather station, 6.5 km away at 452 m; the village itself is at 321 m. [10]
The village sits 131 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.06 °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 3 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at USINENS SA, 6.5 km away at 452 m, over 20 summers. [10]
That station sits 131 m above 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 995 mm of rain a year, spread over 112 days — about 8.9 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at USINENS SA, 6.5 km away at 452 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
69 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 316,000 € — 3,086 € per m² of built surface. [11]
80 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 224,280 € — 2,998 € per m². [11]
The median across Haute-Savoie is 4,214 € 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.

…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 Frangy'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.
