Vitality score
Vitality score 10.4/100 — No daily shops (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 33 % of the 8,579 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.

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 26 days a year at or above 30 °C and 46 days at or below 0 °C, over 24 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the MONTELS weather station, 16.1 km away at 255 m; the village itself is at 415 m. [11]
The village sits 160 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.7 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at PUYCELSI, 18.2 km away at 260 m, over 21 summers. [11]
That station sits 155 m below 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 977 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 8.4 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at VAOUR, 4.3 km away at 393 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
No price figures: fewer than five comparable sales were registered here between 2021 and 2025. A median of two sales is not a median. [12]
Uncertainties
No specific uncertainties flagged.

…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 Roussayrolles'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.
