A web hosting company ranked host cities for remote work during the World Cup by evaluating broadband speed, co-working space availability, and accommodation costs. Cities received scores from 0 to 25 across indicators, with higher marks reflecting stronger relative performance. Reliable connectivity, sufficient co-working options, and manageable cybersecurity risks were treated as key factors for longer stays. Houston ranked highly for budget-friendly accommodations within walking distance of Houston Stadium, more than 70 co-working spaces, and an average broadband speed of 177.81 Mbps. Philadelphia ranked similarly well, with average internet speeds of 177.66 Mbps, more than 45 co-working spaces, and 465 accommodation options under $4,000 per week within one mile of the stadium.
