How Hungary 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 Hungary, Budapest XIII. kerület leads at 65/100 — cost 42, climate 87, safety 79; warmest-month highs around 21.5°C and coldest-month lows near -0.1°C give you a feel for the seasons. Nyíregyháza is the pure-budget play at cost 42/100. 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 Hungary before booking anything long-term.
