Full assessments take time. These regions are ones we're actively monitoring — gathering data, tracking developments, and building toward a complete profile. Some will make it into the Atlas. Some won't.

Faroe Islands

18 islands between Norway and Iceland. Climate-stable, politically secure, extraordinary nature. The question is whether a population of 55,000 can sustain the infrastructure needed for deliberate newcomers.
Canada's smallest province — red soil, mild climate, low crime, affordable housing. We're watching the water management situation and whether the island's infrastructure can absorb growing interest from climate-aware migrants.
São Miguel's quieter sibling. Smaller, more remote, even more untouched. We want to understand whether the infrastructure gap between Flores and São Miguel is bridgeable for long-term living.
Post-Brexit residency complexity makes this harder than it should be for non-UK nationals. But the landscape, water security, and political stability of Scotland deserve a full assessment when the residency picture clarifies.
The Chilean Lake District's neighbor across the Andes. More remote, more affordable — but Argentina's currency instability makes a long-term assessment complex. Monitoring.
Warmer than Hokkaido, more accessible, and Japan's most internationally-oriented island. We're assessing whether the same visa challenges that apply to Hokkaido are offset by Kyushu's warmer climate and growing expat infrastructure.
An obvious candidate — EU territory, mild climate, English widely spoken, growing international community. We're watching the affordability trajectory and wildfire risk before publishing a full profile.
