City comparator

The comparator reads straight off the 33 dossiers: cost (single-person monthly budget), score (the same 0–10 liveability figure shown on the homepage board, a composite of cost, infrastructure, community and liveability weighted from advisory experience), weather (average temperature for the current month), plus the visa and tax notes each dossier carries. It is not a rating of a city's worth — it is one consistent dataset, held side by side.

If your comparison disagrees with your expectations, change your inputs, not the table: narrow by cost or rain first, read the two dossiers end to end, then sanity-check the result with the budget planner. All figures here were re-verified in the September 2026 review; the next full pass is scheduled for mid-2027 unless a country changes a rule that bites.
