Vitality score
Vitality score 49.4/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: low (sources disagree on Bakery (boulangerie); sources disagree on Grocery (épicerie / supérette)).
Better served than 37 % of the 3,967 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 6 days a year at or above 30 °C and 64 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the MONT-SAXONNEX weather station, 3.6 km away at 990 m; the village itself is at 505 m. [9]
The village sits 485 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. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 10 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at CLUSES, 4.9 km away at 485 m, over 11 summers. [9]
An average of 1,235 mm of rain a year, spread over 122 days — about 10.1 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at CLUSES, 3.4 km away at 475 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
