Vitality score

Vitality score 16/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 37 % of the 16,802 communes of a similar size.

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 18 days at or below 0 °C, over 25 complete years in 1995–2024. [12]

Measured at the FECAMP weather station, 16.4 km away at 104 m; the village itself is at 83 m. [12]

An average of 1,031 mm of rain a year, spread over 148 days — about 7 mm on a day it rains. [12]

Rainfall measured at CANY-BARVILLE, 4.3 km away at 58 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [12]
