Thanks for opening this up. I was surprised that you don’t really talk about what these choices mean for children growing up. Ie who they grow up with, not just where. Schools & family time are certainly considered, but when we moved from nyc to Asheville my daughters life was changed by being in a neighborhood of kids, ours by having 4-5 families we go camping with and hang out with. It was part of what made us grateful to be here.

One of those families landed here despite using a spreadsheet to rank locations, that didn’t include this place. Just a note to engineers, don’t abstract it too much & neighbors matter.

Great article Kevin! As a fellow Barcelonian I couldn't agree more with your choice. Also love the Venn Diagram that you drew out, nice visual touch.
