🇱🇺 Bech: the verdict, plainly
What the tables imply but never say — what Bech asks you to accept, and what it gives back.
Bech is chosen neither for the rent nor for the commute — the rest has to carry it.
With 1,366 inhabitants, Bech scores 4.8 out of 10 overall, which puts it mid-table of the 127 profiled cities. Its rent of 22.3 €/m² is lower than in 53% of them, and its 38-minute peak commute shorter than in 56%.
Its strengths: nature (7.4) and safety (6.5). Its weak point: transport, at 3.4 — and since the overall score applies a worst-axis penalty, that weakness weighs more than a plain average would suggest.
On the Luxembourg side the daily trip costs nothing: public transport is free across the whole country, and the only price of the journey is time.
