Vitality score
Vitality score 30.3/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 31 % of the 14,130 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 72 days at or below 0 °C, over 15 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the NOVILLARD_SAPC weather station, 3.4 km away at 366 m; the village itself is at 369 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at BELFORT, 4 km away at 422 m, over 16 summers. [11]
That station sits 53 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.06 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]
An average of 935 mm of rain a year, spread over 129 days — about 7.2 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at NOVILLARD_SAPC, 3.4 km away at 366 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

…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 Vézelois'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.
