Vitality score
Vitality score 66.1/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 32 % of the 603 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
Weekly market (reported, unverified): Wednesday, Saturday 8h à 13h centre. [5]
Trajectory
Population 33,196 (2012) → 37,754 (2023): 13.7 % over 10 years. [6,1]
Population 33,802 (1990) → 37,754 (2023): 11.7 % over 30 years. [7,1]
Dwellings (2023): 17,461, of which 0.9 % second homes and 5.9 % vacant. [8]
Access and surroundings
Which way the everyday services lie
Bakery (Franconville): 0.2 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]
Food shop (Franconville): 0.3 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]
GP (Franconville): 0.1 km to the west (straight line). [9]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 18 days a year at or above 30 °C and 31 days at or below 0 °C, over 12 complete years in 1995–2024. [10]
Measured at the ARGENTEUIL weather station, 3.2 km away at 73 m; the village itself is at 64 m. [10]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 2 days a summer. [10]
Humidity measured at HERBLAY, 5.4 km away at 75 m, over 19 summers. [10]
An average of 715 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 6 mm on a day it rains. [10]
Rainfall measured at EAUBONNE, 3.1 km away at 57 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [10]
What property sold for
584 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 366,000 € — 4,220 € per m² of built surface. [11]
2,041 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 180,000 € — 2,963 € per m². [11]
The median across Val-d'Oise is 3,609 € per m², so this commune sits above 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
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 Franconville'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.
