Remote work and digital nomadism is now on an exponential trajectory and growing fast. With its growth, thousands of destinations, from tiny surf villages to cosmopolitan mega cities, are now competing to attract digital nomads. Every second, Nomads.com tracks the movement of tens of thousands of digital nomads to spot the currently trending places to live and work remotely.
Destinations here are ranked by growth rates of check-ins made to places by tens of thousands of Nomads.com members using live data analyzing 417,840 check-ins. The primary rank is the most recent growth in check-ins.
These table shows the growth in check-ins for each year in the last 5 years, as well as the last 5 year's growth numbers, and it's ranked by the last 2 year's growth numbers to give you an idea of the fastest growing digital nomad hotspots. It also shows the current rank on Nomads.com, so you can gauge the popularity of the place.
Notes: The COVID pandemic in 2020 has heavily influenced growth numbers in 2020, 2021 and 2022. For that reason, we exclude those years from the data in many calculations. Additionally, data is normalized by the number of trips made on the site each year, so if Nomads.com trip usage goes up or down it does not affect trends.

These digital nomad hotspots have consistently grown in check-ins in the last 5 years (except 2020, 2021 and 2022, due to COVID, and not counting the current year), have low priced real estate (< $350,000 median 1br house price) and let foreigners legally own real estate. These might be good places to invest in real estate.
