Vitality score

Vitality score 41.4/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 3 % of the 2,267 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.

Market and village life

A market is recorded here, but no source gives the day. [5,6]

Trajectory

1968: 7,794 2023: 10,833 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 10,573 (2012) → 10,833 (2023): 2.5 % over 10 years. [7,1]

Population 9,428 (1990) → 10,833 (2023): 14.9 % over 30 years. [8,1]

Dwellings (2023): 4,898, of which 4.1 % second homes and 6.1 % vacant. [9]

Climate

Where this sits nationally

Each track runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile of the 34,141 communes with that measurement; the tick is the median. A value beyond either end sits at the end and is marked ▸.

An average of 10 days a year at or above 30 °C and 40 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the VILLIERS-LE-BAC weather station, 8.5 km away at 147 m; the village itself is at 83 m. [11]

The village sits 64 m below 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. [11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [11]

Humidity measured at VILLIERS-LE-BACLE2, 8.1 km away at 161 m, over 10 summers. [11]

That station sits 78 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]

An average of 616 mm of rain a year, spread over 110 days — about 5.6 mm on a day it rains. [11]

Rainfall measured at VILLIERS-LE-BAC, 8.5 km away at 147 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

What property sold for

418 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 495,575 € — 4,884 € per m² of built surface. [12]

176 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 255,665 € — 4,371 € per m². [12]

The median across Essonne is 3,377 € 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.

…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 Igny'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.
