Vitality score

Vitality score 49.1/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: high.

Better served than 77 % of the 12,738 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.

Market and village life

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Days at or above 30 °C 32.9

Days at or below 0 °C 39.9

Muggy days a summer 3.9

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 33 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 19 complete years in 1995–2024. ^[11]

Measured at the MONTAIGU weather station, 2.3 km away at 230 m; the village itself is at 184 m. ^[11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 4 days a summer. ^[11]

Humidity measured at LAUZERTE, 11.1 km away at 231 m, over 23 summers. ^[11]

An average of 840 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. ^[11]

Rainfall measured at MONTAIGU, 2.3 km away at 230 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. ^[11]

What property sold for

146 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 155,000 € — 1,251 € per m² of built surface. ^[12]

7 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 89,000 € — 525 € per m². ^[12]

The median across Tarn-et-Garonne is 1,429 € per m², so this commune sits below it. ^[12]

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 Montaigu-de-Quercy'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.
