How Finland works as a nomad base
The nomad score leans hardest on affordability (45%) because cost is the lever remote workers feel monthly, then climate comfort (30%) and safety (25%). In Finland, Turku leads at 61/100 — cost 48, climate 74, safety 69; warmest-month highs around 16.7°C and coldest-month lows near -5.7°C give you a feel for the seasons. Lahti is the pure-budget play at cost 50/100. Two practical factors sit outside the score — connectivity and visa/tax rules — so shortlist by these numbers, then verify internet quality and the current remote-work visa terms for Finland before booking anything long-term.
