Vitality score

Vitality score 87.5/100 — Well served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Butcher (boucherie)).

Better served than 81 % of the 347 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.

An average of 12 days a year at or above 30 °C and 22 days at or below 0 °C, over 12 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the ST-DENIS weather station, 6 km away at 75 m; the village itself is at 54 m. [11]

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

Humidity measured at ST-DENIS, 6 km away at 75 m, over 12 summers. [11]

An average of 683 mm of rain a year, spread over 116 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [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 Pantin'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.
