Planning a relocation or long-term stay abroad? Compare places on sunshine, cost, tax, and visa access for your passport, then ask AI about your shortlist.
Deciding where to relocate or spend an extended stay abroad usually means a dozen open tabs - a weather site, Numbeo, embassy pages, nomad forums - and none of them talk to each other. GeoRank.place is a free, no-signup interactive map built to replace all of that with one decision tool. It layers 8 data sets over a ~5 km global grid - sunshine and temperature calibrated against 219 ground stations (SARAH-3 + ERA5 + CHELSA), tax rates from OECD/PwC/KPMG, per-passport visa and residency routes across 47 destinations and 10 passports, cost-of-living from 478 cities, geopolitical risk, and community-sourced "Nomad Pulse" sentiment. Pin your candidate places, switch to Compare mode to see every metric as a delta against your current home (warmer, cheaper, safer, taxed differently), and ask an AI assistant that reasons only over your own shortlist - "which of my 5 places has the best winter?" - with cited, grounded answers. Built for the actual decision of where to live next, not just for browsing data. Key Features - Built for the actual relocation decision - narrow down candidate places, not just browse a data map - Compare mode: set your current home as the baseline and see every candidate place as a delta - warmer, cheaper, safer, taxed differently than where you live now - Per-passport visa & residency answers - 47 destinations x 10 passports, official gov/embassy sources, quarterly re-verified, so you know how long you can actually stay before you plan around a place - Pin up to 20 candidate places to a shortlist, saved across sessions, so a multi-week relocation search doesn't live across a dozen browser tabs - AI chat that reasons over your shortlist - ask it to weigh your specific candidates against each other instead of researching each one from scratch (see AI feature section below) - Sunshine & temperature calibrated against 219 ground reference stations (SARAH-3 satellite + ERA5 + CHELSA v2.1) - not raw, uncorrected satellite data, so climate comparisons are trustworthy - Cost-of-living layer across 478 cities (Numbeo-sourced) - Tax layer from OECD, PwC, and KPMG statutory rate data - Geopolitical risk index (UCDP + World Bank) and community-driven "Nomad Pulse" sentiment signal - Interactive global map at ~5 km resolution (0.05°), 183,000+ tiles, 8 toggleable data layers - Free to explore, no signup, no install - runs in the browser - Extensive companion content: rankings, side-by-side city/country comparisons, methodology page
