Varanasi 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 Varanasi stands
71/100 — rank 529 of the 834 cities scored, and 94 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), Coworkings dispo (85/100, rank 9). What holds it back: Facilité visa (52/100, rank 734), Timezone (EU+US) (38/100, rank 658).
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.
