Vitality score
Vitality score 88.9/100 — Well served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).
Better served than 81 % of the 289 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 13 days a year at or above 30 °C and 28 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the ROSNY - FORT weather station, 6.4 km away at 116 m; the village itself is at 48 m. [10]
The village sits 68 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 ST-DENIS, 7.3 km away at 75 m, over 12 summers. [10]
An average of 680 mm of rain a year, spread over 118 days — about 5.8 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at LES PAVILLONS, 3.9 km away at 52 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]

…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 Drancy'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.
