The eight criteria
8 working hours shared with Western Europe.
2 with the US east coast.
Climatically workable months: May, June, July, August, September, October.
Baalbek has no hand-written dossier: we measure neither its real speeds, nor its coworking spaces, nor its community on the ground. The figures above are computed — the label under each says where it comes from. What is certain: the entry right, the shared working hours and the season.
Where Baalbek stands
68/100 — rank 626 of the 834 cities scored, and 150 of the 251 in Asia. A score on its own says nothing; its position explains it.
What carries it: Climat (70/100, rank 103), Timezone (EU+US) (83/100, rank 393). What holds it back: Sécurité (58/100, rank 672), Facilité visa (60/100, rank 642).
