Ho Chi Minh City 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 Hô Chi Minh-Ville stands

79/100 — rank 219 of the 834 cities scored, and 12 of the 251 in Asia. A score on its own says nothing; its position explains it.

What carries it: Coût de vie (95/100, rank 1), Communauté nomad (90/100, rank 2). What holds it back: Timezone (EU+US) (25/100, rank 706), Qualité Internet (85/100, rank 164).

The six closest profiles

Closeness is computed across all eight scores, not the overall one: two cities at 80 may have nothing in common — one expensive and safe, the other cheap and loud. It is the shape of the profile that matches.
