How Belgium works as a nomad base
The nomad score leans hardest on affordability (45%) because cost is the lever remote workers feel monthly, then climate comfort (30%) and safety (25%). In Belgium, Namur leads at 71/100 — cost 50, climate 92, safety 82; warmest-month highs around 17.5°C and coldest-month lows near 2.4°C give you a feel for the seasons. Namur is the pure-budget play at cost 50/100. Two practical factors sit outside the score — connectivity and visa/tax rules — so shortlist by these numbers, then verify internet quality and the current remote-work visa terms for Belgium before booking anything long-term.
