Vitality score
Vitality score 34.8/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 36 % of the 12,448 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 11 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the SAINT-GRATIEN weather station, 7.1 km away at 110 m; the village itself is at 64 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at AMIENS-GLISY, 9.6 km away at 60 m, over 30 summers. [10]
An average of 817 mm of rain a year, spread over 130 days — about 6.3 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at SAINT-GRATIEN, 7.1 km away at 110 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
76 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 201,325 € — 1,968 € per m² of built surface. [11]
The median across Somme is 1,471 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.

…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 Poulainville'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.
