Vitality score
Vitality score 31.1/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 38 % of the 14,735 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 4 days a year at or above 30 °C and 29 days at or below 0 °C, over 19 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CAYEUX-SUR-MER weather station, 19 km away at 4 m; the village itself is at 23 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CAYEUX-SUR-MER, 19 km away at 4 m, over 18 summers. [11]
An average of 970 mm of rain a year, spread over 142 days — about 6.8 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at BUIGNY-LES-GAMACHES, 4.3 km away at 114 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
72 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 140,000 € — 1,387 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Somme is 1,471 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [12]
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 Beauchamps'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.
