The study compared apartment rent costs, public transport, co-working spaces and offices, electricity, and mobile internet in 27 EU capitals and Great Britain.
Among digital nomads, Amsterdam, Berlin, and Paris are the most popular EU capitals. However, these destinations are also among the most expensive ones.
By comparison, Bucharest stands out not only for having the lowest overall costs but also for offering affordable prices for both shared and private workspaces.
Mobile workers from abroad pay around EUR 132 in the Romanian capital. Warsaw and Tallinn secured the second and third places, respectively, with prices of EUR 138 and EUR 140.
