Vitality score
Vitality score 76.2/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 82 % of the 919 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 51 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 18 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the CAVAILLON weather station, 2.4 km away at 70 m; the village itself is at 73 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 11 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at OPPEDE CRETE DU PETIT LUBERON, 9.1 km away at 672 m, over 22 summers. [10]
That station sits 599 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 652 mm of rain a year, spread over 62 days — about 10.5 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at CAVAILLON, 2.4 km away at 70 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
