Cornellà de Llobregat is a city and Spain a country. Each figure is that place’s own; scores compare each with its own peers (Spain with EU countries, regions with regions, cities with cities), so read them side by side rather than as a contest.

Why Cornellà de Llobregat

  • Barcelona a short metro ride away & the airport next door
  • Flats cheaper than in the city and fibre almost everywhere

Watch out: Street robbery is higher than in most Spanish cities; Dense high-rise blocks with traffic and little greenery.

Why Spain

  • A mild climate along the coast and islands and long days outdoors
  • Regional variety in food and landscape and language

Watch out: Job openings and pay that differ widely by region and sector; Procedures that vary by region and often run only in Spanish.

Of 2 figures both publish in the same unit, Cornellà de Llobregat is better on 0 and Spain on 1; the rest are close or have no better direction.
