Vitality score

Vitality score 45.6/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 29 % of the 5,410 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 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 61 days at or below 0 °C, over 18 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]

Measured at the LE CHATELET weather station, 1.7 km away at 85 m; the village itself is at 89 m. [9]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. [9]

Humidity measured at LE CHATELET, 1.7 km away at 85 m, over 18 summers. [9]

An average of 684 mm of rain a year, spread over 115 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [9]

Rainfall measured at LE CHATELET, 1.7 km away at 85 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

What property sold for

272 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 260,000 € — 2,627 € per m² of built surface. [10]

22 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 172,500 € — 2,019 € per m². [10]

The median across Seine-et-Marne is 2,667 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [10]

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 Le Châtelet-en-Brie'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.
