Vitality score
Vitality score 69.9/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 76 % of the 1,251 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 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 84 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the STE MARGUERITE weather station, 2.1 km away at 358 m; the village itself is at 338 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at BAN-DE-SAPT, 7.3 km away at 590 m, over 20 summers. [9]
That station sits 252 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.63 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 1,134 mm of rain a year, spread over 142 days — about 8 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at STE MARGUERITE, 2.1 km away at 358 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Saint-Dié-des-Vosges'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.
