  • Healthcare: 20% - The availability of both public and private care is considered.
  • Culture and environment: 20% - Factors as divergent as climate, corruption, and sports are considered in this category.
  • Education: 10% - Again, public and private indicators are considered.
  • Infrastructure: 25% - Housing, roads, energy, and other basic utilities are considered here.
