Vitality score

Vitality score 62.1/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Pharmacy).

Better served than 45 % of the 1,064 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

Market day (reported, unverified): Sunday de 11h à 19h avenue Camille-Sée (seasonal). No source says whether it is weekly or monthly. [5]

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 16 days a year at or above 30 °C and 26 days at or below 0 °C, over 16 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]

Measured at the MEUDON weather station, 1.8 km away at 160 m; the village itself is at 58 m. [10]

The village sits 102 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. [10]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [10]

Humidity measured at COURBEVOIE, 8.3 km away at 51 m, over 10 summers. [10]

An average of 682 mm of rain a year, spread over 121 days — about 5.6 mm on a day it rains. [10]

Rainfall measured at MEUDON, 1.8 km away at 160 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

What property sold for

257 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 1,063,500 € — 8,298 € per m² of built surface. [11]

1,023 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 342,500 € — 5,821 € per m². [11]

The median across Hauts-de-Seine is 7,718 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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.

Uncertainties

sources disagree on Pharmacy

The market day comes from the commune's own website and has not been confirmed by a second source. [5]

…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 Sèvres'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.
