Relocation Fit

The best city depends on who is asking.

A single liveability ranking assumes everyone wants the same things. They do not — a family weighing schools and a remote worker weighing bandwidth and rent are looking at different cities. Set the sliders to your own priorities and the order changes with them.

Weight your priorities

Start from a profile, then move anything. Weights are normalized before scoring, so the result stays on a 0–100 scale however far you push the sliders.

Before you pack: six of these eight factors are seed estimates, not measurements — useful for narrowing a shortlist, not for settling one. Visas, language, tax residency and whether you already know someone there matter more than any of these numbers, and none of them appear here.
