Ranked from Terragrado's A→G model (national percentile scoring). The Climate score is 0–100. Tap any municipality for the full breakdown — radar, hazards, price & population trends, every indicator with its source.

Provisional marks a municipality where some pillars have no data yet; the missing ones are treated as neutral, so read those grades as directional.

How this ranking works

Terragrado grades each municipality on five pillars — climate resilience, local vitality, amenities & access, property value and market & investment — from official open data, then percentile-ranks them within each country. This page surfaces the top of that ranking for one question and one area. Want it weighted to your priorities? Generate a personalized dossier or re-weight the live map.
