Where should you actually move?

No. Your five matches appear on this page straight away. The email form is optional and only sends you a copy of the shortlist; the page address also saves your answers, so bookmarking it works just as well.

Every city is scored 0–100 on cost, climate, safety, internet, visa-free stay, nomad-visa access, tax, legal exposure and path to residency. Your answers set the weights: the priority you pick carries roughly half the total, and saying weather matters raises the climate weight. Cities over your budget are left out, and so are cities rated unsafe or under a conflict-zone travel advisory (they are still in the City Finder). Ties go to the cheaper city.

Yes. Visa-free stay lengths are looked up for US, EU, UK, Canadian and Australian passports, and the stay length feeds the score. Nomad-visa, tax and legal ratings are researched for US citizens.

The same datasets as the rest of the site: Numbeo cost baskets and safety surveys, official homicide and road-death statistics, three years of measured hourly weather, Ookla speed-test medians, and our own country research on visas, tax and family law. Each dashboard shows when its data was last updated, and figures that are estimates carry an ⓘ mark.

We read every request and reply by email, usually within a couple of days, pointing you to a provider who handles nomad or residency visa paperwork for that country. Providers are independent and set their own fees, and we may be paid for a referral. Nothing on this site is legal or immigration advice.
