Where Madrid stands

85/100 — rank 14 of the 834 cities scored, and 13 of the 286 in Europe. A score on its own says nothing; its position explains it.

What carries it: Coworkings dispo (85/100, rank 9), Climat (82/100, rank 13). What holds it back: Coût de vie (65/100, rank 648), Timezone (EU+US) (95/100, rank 369).

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.
