Where Medellín stands

83/100 — rank 57 of the 834 cities scored, and 4 of the 54 in South America. A score on its own says nothing; its position explains it.

What carries it: Climat (90/100, rank 4), Facilité visa (96/100, rank 22). What holds it back: Qualité Internet (78/100, rank 542), Timezone (EU+US) (82/100, rank 522).

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.
