How Singapore 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 Singapore, Ulu Bedok leads at 63/100 — cost 48, climate 82, safety 67; warmest-month highs around 27.5°C and coldest-month lows near 25.9°C give you a feel for the seasons. Ang Mo Kio New Town is the pure-budget play at cost 49/100. 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 Singapore before booking anything long-term.
