Vitality score

Vitality score 62.7/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 95 % of the 9,089 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

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 2 days a year at or above 30 °C and 23 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]

Measured at the DIEPPE weather station, 17.2 km away at 40 m; the village itself is at 75 m. [9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [9]

Humidity measured at DIEPPE, 17.2 km away at 40 m, over 30 summers. [9]

An average of 882 mm of rain a year, spread over 136 days — about 6.5 mm on a day it rains. [9]

Rainfall measured at AVREMESNIL, 3.1 km away at 67 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Luneray'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.
