Vitality score

Vitality score 52.4/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).

Confidence: medium (sources disagree on Restaurant).

Better served than 51 % of the 4,689 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, Friday, Sunday. [5]

Trajectory

1968: 2,036 2023: 5,008 axis from zero, so the slope compares with any other commune

Population 4,401 (2012) → 5,008 (2023): 13.8 % over 10 years. [6,1]

Population 3,371 (1990) → 5,008 (2023): 48.6 % over 30 years. [7,1]

Dwellings (2023): 2,302, of which 1.9 % second homes and 8.6 % vacant. [8]

In the commune Bakery, Primary school, GP Food shop — 0.7 km NEPharmacy — 4.1 km W Straight-line, from the mairie, in the direction given. Services in the same town share a spoke. Distance is not travel time: a pass or an estuary can double it.

Bakery (Luzarches): 0.1 km to the south (straight line). [9]

Food shop (Luzarches): 0.7 km to the north-east (straight line). [9]

GP (Luzarches): 0.1 km to the south-west (straight line). [9]

Primary school (Luzarches): 0.2 km to the north-east (straight line). [9]

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 14 days a year at or above 30 °C and 31 days at or below 0 °C, over 13 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]

Measured at the LE PLESSIS GASSOT weather station, 8.1 km away at 108 m; the village itself is at 72 m. [11]

Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]

Humidity measured at ST WITZ, 9.8 km away at 141 m, over 17 summers. [11]

That station sits 69 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [11]

An average of 731 mm of rain a year, spread over 119 days — about 6.1 mm on a day it rains. [11]

Rainfall measured at LE PLESSIS GASSOT, 8.1 km away at 108 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]

What property sold for

231 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 370,000 € — 3,383 € per m² of built surface. [12]

106 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 158,123 € — 3,162 € per m². [12]

The median across Val-d'Oise is 3,609 € per m², so this commune sits about level with 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.

Uncertainties

sources disagree on Restaurant

The market day comes from DATAtourisme 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 Luzarches'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.
