The study included 57 countries around the world, which were evaluated for a number of parameters that affect how comfortable a freelancer would be there.

In particular, it includes the cost of living, the average speed of the Internet, quality of the transport system, number of free Wi-Fi points, the cost of a cup of coffee, the income tax rate, and how easy it is to start a business or gain access to a loan.
