Frequently Asked Questions
How are nomad scores calculated?
Nomad scores combine internet speed, cost of living, safety rating, visa accessibility, quality of life, and weather data into a single 0-10 composite score. Higher is better. Data comes from Numbeo, Ookla, and government sources.
How often is the data updated?
Cost of living and internet speed data are refreshed quarterly. Safety indices and visa information are updated as new data becomes available from official sources. The last update timestamp is shown at the top of each country page.
What does cost of living include?
Monthly cost estimates include rent (private room or studio), coworking space, food (mix of cooking and eating out), local transport, utilities, and entertainment. Costs are benchmarked to a mid-range lifestyle in each country's primary city.
How many countries are covered?
DropThe tracks 246 countries and territories worldwide. Each country page includes nomad scores, cost breakdowns, internet speeds, safety data, visa info, and links to city-level data where available.
Can I compare countries side by side?
Yes. Use the Travel Comparator tool in the Studio to compare up to 4 countries on cost, speed, safety, and nomad score. You can also browse the full database at /places/database/ with sortable columns and region filters.
