Vitality score
Vitality score 31/100 — Few services (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 19 % of the 11,407 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 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 52 days at or below 0 °C, over 26 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the FONTENAY-LES-B. weather station, 4.6 km away at 109 m; the village itself is at 93 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at DOURDAN, 11.4 km away at 116 m, over 20 summers. [11]
An average of 704 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 6.1 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at FONTENAY-LES-B., 4.6 km away at 109 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
87 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 365,600 € — 2,470 € per m² of built surface. [12]
16 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 180,850 € — 3,504 € per m². [12]
The median across Essonne is 3,377 € per m², so this commune sits below 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 Saint-Maurice-Montcouronne'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.
