How this score was worked out
Each part is scored out of 100, multiplied by what it is worth, and divided by the total. Nothing here is a guess about you: the weights are the same for every reader, and the criteria below are your own answers.
| Part of the score | Score out of 100 | What it is worth | Points it added |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feasibility | 90 | 3 of 18 | 18 |
| Affordability The published cost figure here covers sitting tenancies, and the same publisher states a newer figure, so this one is shown and not scored. | not scored | 3 of 18 | — |
| Income and career | 100 | 1 of 18 | 7 |
| Family | 100 | 1 of 18 | 7 |
| Lifestyle and environment | 70 | 3 of 18 | 14 |
| Long-term settlement | 54 | 1 of 18 | 4 |
| Fit for your reason for moving | 96 | 6 of 18 | 38 |
| Fit score | 87 | ||
These add up over the 15 points we could measure here, not all 18. A part we cannot measure is left out rather than counted as zero, so the parts we can measure are each worth proportionally more.
