Vitality score
Vitality score 41.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 74 % of the 15,659 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.

Food shop (Saint-Vigor-d'Ymonville): 2.9 km to the east (straight line). [9]
GP (Saint-Romain-de-Colbosc): 3.4 km to the north-east (straight line). [10]
Pharmacy (Saint-Romain-de-Colbosc): 4.5 km to the north-east (straight line). [10]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 5 days a year at or above 30 °C and 35 days at or below 0 °C, over 27 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]
Measured at the GODERVILLE weather station, 16.6 km away at 118 m; the village itself is at 103 m. [12]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [12]
Humidity measured at OCTEVILLE, 16.9 km away at 90 m, over 30 summers. [12]
An average of 1,029 mm of rain a year, spread over 149 days — about 6.9 mm on a day it rains. [12]
Rainfall measured at ST-ROMAIN-DE-C, 3.4 km away at 110 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
What property sold for
42 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 239,500 € — 1,982 € per m² of built surface. [13]
The median across Seine-Maritime is 1,803 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [13]
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 Sandouville'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.
