Vitality score
Vitality score 50.2/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 90 % of the 15,921 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 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 61 days at or below 0 °C, over 18 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the LE CHATELET weather station, 8.6 km away at 85 m; the village itself is at 86 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at LE CHATELET, 8.6 km away at 85 m, over 18 summers. [10]
An average of 745 mm of rain a year, spread over 120 days — about 6.2 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at CHATILLON-LA-B., 3.4 km away at 93 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
56 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 287,250 € — 2,431 € per m² of built surface. [11]
The median across Seine-et-Marne is 2,667 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [11]
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.
Uncertainties
No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Blandy'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.
