Vitality score

Vitality score 42.5/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 55 % of the 11,200 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

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 0 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at EVIAN SA, 1.7 km away at 725 m, over 23 summers. ^[11]

That station sits 71 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.69 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. ^[11]

An average of 1,134 mm of rain a year, spread over 120 days — about 9.5 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at EVIAN SA, 1.7 km away at 725 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]
