Vitality score
Vitality score 24.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 30 % of the 16,352 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 49 days a year at or above 30 °C and 34 days at or below 0 °C, over 17 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the CASTRES weather station, 7.2 km away at 196 m; the village itself is at 167 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 12 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at DOURGNE, 13.3 km away at 234 m, over 16 summers. [11]
That station sits 67 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 844 mm of rain a year, spread over 108 days — about 7.8 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at CASTRES, 7.2 km away at 196 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

…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 Fréjeville'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.
