Indices
Every index ImmigrationDB publishes and what it measures. Each index comes apart into the sourced facts it is built from; its page shows which destinations it scores and when the values were observed.
Published indices
An index publishes only when enough destinations carry every input it needs; a destination without them is listed on the index page with the reason, never given an estimated score.
| Index | What it measures |
|---|---|
| Settling-in index | The conditions a newcomer meets: integration policy, getting by in English, an established foreign community and language courses. |
How these indices are built
An index combines a few published values into one score per destination, with its weights and scoring rules stated on its own page. It describes a specific question — such as the conditions a newcomer meets on arrival — and is not a verdict on where to live. For a single measure across countries, see the country rankings.
