Vitality score

Vitality score 37.9/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 48 % of the 13,020 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.

Population 1,307 (1990) → 1,238 (2023): -5.3 % over 30 years. [6,1]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

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 44 days a year at or above 30 °C and 34 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the DURFORT weather station, 6.4 km away at 153 m; the village itself is at 144 m. [10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 5 days a summer. [10]

Humidity measured at LAUZERTE, 8.5 km away at 231 m, over 23 summers. [10]

That station sits 87 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.26 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]

An average of 764 mm of rain a year, spread over 112 days — about 6.8 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at LAUZERTE_MAN, 5.8 km away at 122 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

What property sold for

73 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 160,130 € — 1,181 € per m² of built surface. [11]

6 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 87,000 € — 515 € per m². [11]

The median across Tarn-et-Garonne is 1,429 € per m², so this commune sits below 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 Cazes-Mondenard'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.
