Executive HQ Cities
Comprehensive operational intelligence for the world's best remote work destinations. Each report includes timezone analysis, infrastructure grades, and compliance guidance.
10xNomad grades executive HQ cities across 8 dimensions: infrastructure reliability, timezone overlap with US/EU, coworking ecosystem, legal residency pathways, cost-of-living for $200K+ earners, healthcare access, safety, and expat community density.
Each city receives a letter grade (A-D) based on weighted scoring across all 8 dimensions. Each report shows the date its data was last verified. Internet speed data comes from Ookla Speedtest, cost-of-living from Numbeo, and visa information from Passport Index.
Use the city reports to shortlist your next base before committing to a long-stay visa or lease. If you're hiring or getting paid across borders, see the Deel vs Remote.com comparison.
