Vitality score

Vitality score 12.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 37 % of the 12,501 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.

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 9.2

Days at or below 0 °C 52.3

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 9 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 13 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[12]

Measured at the DURY-LES-AMIENS weather station, 18.3 km away at 74 m; the village itself is at 28 m. ^[12]

An average of 757 mm of rain a year, spread over 128 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. ^[12]

Rainfall measured at MOLLIENS-DREUIL, 8.1 km away at 61 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[12]
