Vitality score
Vitality score 20.4/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 39 % of the 18,035 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.

…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 Balloy'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.
