Estimated probability of at least one damaging event within 30 years, from historical catalogues: wildfires (NASA FIRMS, since 2012), earthquakes (USGS, since 1960), tsunamis (NOAA, since 1600). Being absolute, it is comparable between hazards and between countries.

Indicators (official sources)
Climate & resilience
59/100Beach season
How long the outdoor season lasts: days at 22 °C or more, summer nights and winter mildness (Open-Meteo ERA5). High = a long outdoor season.
Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) — ERA5 · 2026-07-31
summer nights 22.4 °C · winter days 14 °C
Climate comfort
Sunny but mild: sunny days, days above 30 °C and frost days (Open-Meteo ERA5). High = bright, without punishing heat or hard winters.

13 days >30 °C · 0 frost days · ⌀ 18 °C
Earthquakes
Probability of at least one damaging earthquake over 30 years. Every quake in the USGS catalogue (1960 onwards) within 100 km is converted to the shaking intensity it would produce here, and only those reaching the structural-damage threshold (EMS-98 VI) count. Lower is better.
USGS FDSN — earthquake catalogue · 2026-08-03
183 < 100 km · max M5.8
Tsunamis
Probability of at least one damaging tsunami over 30 years, from historical run-ups observed within 20 km (NOAA global database — e.g. the 1755 Lisbon tsunami reached A Coruña and Corcubión). An old event still counts — tsunami rates are stable over centuries — but it is divided by the centuries of record it sits in. Only measured waves above 1 m contribute. Lower is better.
NOAA NCEI/WDS — Global Historical Tsunami Database · 2026-08-03
12 < 20 km · 8.5 m
Wildfires
Probability of at least one damaging wildfire within 20 km over 30 years. Estimated from the full VIIRS/NASA FIRMS archive (2012 onwards): detections are collapsed onto 375 m pixels, weighted by their radiative power, and recent seasons count for more. Lower is better.

Local vitality
35/100Foreign residents
Share of residents with foreign nationality (each country's official population register or census — see the source below). An established international community often eases a newcomer's integration. Higher scores better.

Attractiveness (points of interest)
Density of points of interest per km² (tourism, culture, food, leisure, nature) from OpenStreetMap. Higher means a livelier/more attractive area.

Amenities & access
36/100Air connectivity
Ease of access to international airports, weighted by their importance and the straight-line distance from the municipality centre. Higher means better international connections.

Everyday essentials
How many of the four essential services (pharmacy, supermarket, school, doctor) are actually inside the municipality boundary, according to OpenStreetMap. This counts presence, not distance: a municipality with none of the four means a drive for every errand.

Property value
68/100Property price (€/m²)
Indicative price per m² (MITMA provincial proxy). A lower price improves the affordability score.
Agenzia Entrate — OMI, Quotazioni Immobiliari · 2018-12-31
Market & investment
27/100Market liquidity
Number of sales per 1,000 dwellings (MITMA — property transactions). A liquid market resells more easily. Higher is better.

Gross rental yield
Estimated gross rental yield: reference rent (SERPAVI) ÷ purchase price (MITMA) × 12. Indicative, derived from two official sources. Higher means better yield.

Tourism potential (short-term rental)
Tourist-accommodation places per 1,000 inhabitants (INE). A proxy for short-term rental potential. High = strong rental potential (but also more tourism).
