Not Your Typical City Personality Quiz
Most city personality quizzes are entertainment. Fixed results mapped to generic personality types. This where-to-move quiz is a tool.
Feelings first
Most quizzes use fixed personality mappings. This one starts with how you actually want to feel day-to-day, then layers in practical constraints like budget and visa.
Real data, 300+ cities
Every city is profiled with actual cost of living, internet speed, safety scores, weather patterns, and community data from government sources, Numbeo, and Speedtest.
Transparent results
You get 5-7 ranked cities with clear explanations of why each one matched and where the tradeoffs are. No black box, no mystery algorithm. You can see the reasoning.
