Vitality score
Vitality score 54.1/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 79 % of the 8,285 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 62 days a year at or above 30 °C and 49 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the SARRIANS weather station, 2.6 km away at 36 m; the village itself is at 41 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 3 days a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at CARPENTRAS, 4.7 km away at 98 m, over 30 summers. [11]
That station sits 57 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.57 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 682 mm of rain a year, spread over 67 days — about 10.2 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at SARRIANS, 2.6 km away at 36 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
126 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 295,000 € — 2,871 € per m² of built surface. [12]
12 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 309,480 € — 2,604 € per m². [12]
The median across Vaucluse is 2,599 € per m², so this commune sits above 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.

Matched on size, density, second homes and which everyday shops and services are present — not on the score, so a village of the same kind that is doing better or worse shows up rather than being hidden.

…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 Loriol-du-Comtat'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.
