Vitality score
Vitality score 58.8/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 72 % of the 3,743 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 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 28 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the POUZAUGES SA weather station, 7.7 km away at 153 m; the village itself is at 210 m. [10]
The village sits 57 m above the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 5.71 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at POUZAUGES SA, 7.7 km away at 153 m, over 20 summers. [10]
That station sits 57 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [10]
An average of 892 mm of rain a year, spread over 124 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at POUZAUGES SA, 7.7 km away at 153 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
363 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 150,000 € — 1,275 € per m² of built surface. [11]
10 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 108,500 € — 965 € per m². [11]
The median across Vendée is 2,125 € 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 Sèvremont'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.
