Angers — France (60/62 · 96.77%)
Every French city has a tourism office calling it the most liveable place in France and a forum thread saying the opposite. This is an instrument instead of an opinion.
62 questions. Seven Zen pillars. One Practical Foundation. The same yes/no questions asked of every city, in the same order, against the same thresholds — Restore, Move, Nourish, Sacred, Nature, Eco, and Community as the lens, with the Practical Foundation (visa, tax treaty, healthcare access, affordability, property, safety) as the ground the pillars stand on.
Angers scores 60/62 — 96.77%. Two flagged items, both reflecting the gentle geography of western France rather than any failing of the city. Every question carries one sentence of factual rationale — no venue names, no softening — so you can hold Angers directly against Paris and Saumur, with more cities added as they're completed.
Built for people deciding where in France to retire or relocate.
The Scorecard decides. The Guide reveals. Any city scoring 88% or higher also earns a Zen to Live Guide — the specific places, rituals, and rhythms worth building a scouting trip around. Angers has one.
Evaluated May 2026 by someone who spends months here every year for exactly the reasons this scorecard documents.
