Top nomad bases in Latvia

How Latvia 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 Latvia, Ventspils leads at 68/100 — cost 53, climate 80, safety 79; warmest-month highs around 17.3°C and coldest-month lows near -3.1°C give you a feel for the seasons. Ventspils is the pure-budget play at cost 53/100. 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 Latvia before booking anything long-term.
