Vitality score
Vitality score 74.3/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: low (sources disagree on Butcher (boucherie); sources disagree on Restaurant).
Better served than 79 % of the 958 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 229 days a year at or above 30 °C and 0 days at or below 0 °C, over 11 complete years in 1995–2024. [9]
Measured at the PETIT-BOURG ROUJOL weather station, 1.2 km away at 12 m; the village itself is at 1 m. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 91 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at PETIT-BOURG DUCLOS-INRAE, 7.8 km away at 110 m, over 25 summers. [9]
That station sits 109 m above the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 3.97 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 1,960 mm of rain a year, spread over 183 days — about 10.7 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at PETIT-BOURG ROUJOL, 1.2 km away at 12 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]

…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 Petit-Bourg'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.
