No mystery score.

Every ranking is built from five visible pillars, explicit weights and source-linked releases. Change the priorities and the order changes with them.

Affordability

Asking rent €/m² and recent change, with sale prices as a second read. Source: Ministerio de Vivienda observatory structure.

Opportunity

Unemployment, sector breadth and whether the city can absorb a newcomer who is not fully remote. Source: INE.

Mobility

Rail accessibility and airport connectivity. Island cities are penalised on rail on purpose — that is the logistics tax.

Climate fit

Sunshine hours and winter/summer extremes from AEMET normals. A high score is “easy outdoor life”, not “objectively best weather”.
