Questions
What is Yearstack?
A 3-minute quiz that turns your budget, priorities, and dealbreakers into a personalized 12-month city strategy: where to go, when to go, what to avoid, and how to start.
How long does it take?
About three minutes. Fifteen to eighteen quick questions depending on your path, one per screen. Your free result (your archetype and top city matches) shows right away.
What do I get for free vs. paid?
Free: your archetype, your top city matches, and a shareable card. Paid ($19 at launch): your full Yearstack, with a 12-month city sequence, best months to go, city deep-dives, neighborhood starting points, visa reality notes, an avoid list, and a first-90-days plan.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. If the report isn't useful, reply to the delivery email and we'll refund you. We'd rather have a fair reputation than a marginal sale.
How are cities scored?
All 51 cities are scored on three things: how well you can earn and keep money there, what a great day costs, and how fast the city is rising. Your answers decide how much each one matters for you, then we filter by your budget, climate, and hard-no regions.
Where does the city data come from?
A hand-curated, versioned dataset built from the Rising World Report methodology — not a scraped feed. Visa and cost notes are informational; always verify with official sources before you move.
