# Is 🇱🇹 Lithuania (Vilnius) a good place to live?

Quality score **83/100** against essentials of **$1,217/month**.

## The five metrics

Internet 78 195.1 Mbps median broadband, 89.2% online

Safety 84 2.6 homicides/100k (2023)

Healthcare 78 UHC service coverage 78/100 (2023)

Air quality 92 PM2.5 8.6 µg/m³ (2023)

## Beside the score, not inside it

Neither of these is part of the composite above, deliberately. Folding governance into a quality-of-life number would bury a political judgement where you could not see it or argue with it, and connection *price* is a different question from connection *speed* — somewhere fast and expensive and somewhere slow and cheap are different trade-offs, not one average.

- **Rule of law**: very strong
- World Bank WGI estimate 1.37 · corruption control 0.99 · stability 0.94 (2024). Scale −2.5 to +2.5, higher is better.
- **What connectivity costs**: $9.36 /mo broadband
- Mobile 10GB $11.46/month. ITU price basket. The speed above is scored; this price is not.
