Analysts at IWG have conducted a comparative analysis of 30 popular cities, creating a ranking based on their suitability for a "workation"— a blend of work and vacation.
The experts assessed these locations rating them on a scale of 10 in the following categories:
- Climate
- Culture
- Accommodation
- Transport
- Food
- Subsistence (cost of a coffee)
- Happiness
- Broadband speed
- Sustainability
- Availability of flexible workspaces
Top 10 cities for a workcation, according to IWG:
- Budapest, Hungary
- Barcelona, Spain
- Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
- Beijing, China
- Lisbon, Portugal
- New York, USA
- Singapore
- Jakarta, Indonesia
- Los Angeles, USA
- Milan, Italy
Why is Budapest the leader of the rating?
Budapest topped this year’s list due to high scores in the accommodation (9.5/10), transport (9.5/10), sustainability (8.5/10) and broadband speed (8/10) categories.
By the way, Hungary has a digital nomad visa ("white card") - with a minimum income threshold of €3,000 per month. The residence permit is valid for 12 months, with the possibility of a single extension.
- A full list of documents and requirements for applicants for a Hungarian digital nomad visa is on the official website.
- And if you are considering obtaining a Hungarian residence permit for a longer period, take a closer look at the updated "guest investor" program. In fact, this is a "golden visa" for 10 years with an extension for a second term in exchange for an investment (including the purchase of real estate).
