Method: where each figure comes from and how the fit score works
How the fit score works
- Each criterion scores 0 to 100.
- Transport: 100 if the trip is at or under your maximum; it falls in a straight line to 0 at 1.5 times the maximum.
- Price: 100 at or under your limit; 0 at 1.3 times the limit.
- Services, Space and Surroundings: the index for each dimension (percentile 0 to 100 within its area). Residents: the % satisfied.
- A criterion with a limit (Transport and Price) only fits if the figure does not pass your limit; if it does and still scores 60 or more, it is «partly», with its figure. The others fit from 60 and are «partly» from 40. The score is the average of the criteria you gave.
- If you pick a priority (Price, Transport or Life), that block counts double. In Price and Transport the score is also the average of the fit to your limit and the town's rank among those in its area (the cheapest, or the closest, scores 100): so, between two that fit your limit, the cheaper or closer one wins.
- A town with no data on a criterion is not scored on it. Nobody pays to rank higher.
Scores from 0 to 100 by rank among the 124 towns in Barcelona and around (100 is the best). Cut-off: 3 November 2026. How it is calculated
