Mombasa 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 Mombasa stands

79/100 — rank 219 of the 834 cities scored, and 14 of the 146 in Africa. 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: Qualité Internet (70/100, rank 550), Timezone (EU+US) (67/100, rank 526).

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.
