Frequently Asked Questions
How does the nomad city quiz work?
The quiz asks 5 questions covering your monthly budget, top priority (cost, internet, safety, weather, or community), preferred climate, desired visa situation, and work schedule (timezone overlap needs). Your answers are matched against a database of 80+ cities weighted by each criterion. The output is your top 3 cities with a score breakdown explaining why each one fits your profile.
How accurate are the quiz city recommendations?
The quiz uses the same verified data powering every city guide — Numbeo cost data, Speedtest internet benchmarks, Numbeo safety scores, and visa flexibility ratings. The algorithm weights these factors by your stated priorities. The recommendations are a data-driven starting point; use the city comparison tool or individual city guides to do deeper research on the shortlist before booking anything.
Can I retake the quiz with different preferences?
Yes — you can take the quiz as many times as you want with no account required. Each set of answers generates a fresh set of recommendations. If you're torn between two priorities (e.g., budget vs. community), try it both ways to see how the city recommendations shift. The quiz link is shareable, so you can send your results to a travel partner.
What if none of the quiz results match what I'm looking for?
Try the AI City Finder instead — it lets you describe what you're looking for in plain language (e.g., 'a cheap city in Southeast Asia with fast internet and a big expat community where I don't need a visa for 3 months') and searches the full database against your description. It handles nuanced, multi-criteria requests that a 5-question quiz can't capture.
