Vitality score
Vitality score 61.5/100 — Served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 80 % of the 3,370 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 52 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 BRAS-LONG_SAPC weather station, 2.3 km away at 510 m; the village itself is at 384 m. [9]
The village sits 126 m below the station, so each day's reading was shifted by 6.9 °C per km of altitude before the days were counted. Expect the result to be within about 0.68 °C. [9]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 74 days a summer. [9]
Humidity measured at LIGNE-PARADIS - CIRAD, 7.6 km away at 178 m, over 19 summers. [9]
That station sits 206 m below the village, so each day's humidity was shifted by 4.22 °C per km before the muggy days were counted. [9]
An average of 1,049 mm of rain a year, spread over 67 days — about 15.7 mm on a day it rains. [9]
Rainfall measured at RAVINE-CITRONS, 1.1 km away at 487 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [9]
What property sold for
214 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 210,000 € — 2,451 € per m² of built surface. [10]
14 flats sold over the same window, at a median of 163,500 € — 2,397 € per m². [10]
The median across La Réunion is 2,542 € per m², so this commune sits about level with it. [10]
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.
