City match quiz

The scoring borrows from the same dossier data the rankings run on — monthly tier, climate, infrastructure, community, liveability — and weights it by your answers. Cities that are a good fit on the dimensions you said matter float to the top. Because nothing about the method is hidden, the shortlist is easy to interrogate: every result links to the full dossier behind it.

Worked example: answer 'warm all year' plus 'under $1,000/month', and the top of your shortlist will look like Da Nang, Chiang Mai and Ho Chi Minh City — not because the quiz prefers them, but because your two loudest answers both point there. Swap 'warm' for 'I want four real seasons' and the same budget answers re-sort toward cities with proper winters — Prague and Budapest among the first that surface.

Is the result a recommendation?

It is a ranked shortlist with reasons, based on the criteria you chose. Cities that fit your answers on paper can still fail you on the ground, so the rule we give clients is: shortlist two or three from the quiz, then read their full dossiers before deciding anything.

Can I re-run it with different answers?

Yes — it is instant, and that is the point. Most people run it twice: once with the answers they think they should give, once with the honest ones. The gap between the two shortlists is a useful thing to notice.

What if two cities come out equal?

Take them to the comparator for a line-by-line side-by-side. When the numbers are truly close, the tie-breaker is usually something the quiz deliberately does not score: where your people are, and how you actually want to spend a weekend.
