- Comprehensive (outpatient + inpatient/hospital, benefit limit 1.8–10 million CZK/event, ~EUR 400,000) commercial medical insurance for foreigners — PVZP Comprehensive EXCLUSIVE and comparable UNIQA/Slavia/Maxima/Ergo products — runs ≈1,700–2,500 CZK/month for a healthy 35-year-old. Midpoint ≈2,100 CZK/mo ≈ 25,200 CZK/yr ≈ $1,186 at 21.244 CZK/USD (range ≈ $960–$1,412). Premiums are quoted on request, so this is a curated market midpoint.
- Notas
- Residents with a residence permit and local work/business are covered by mandatory public health insurance (VZP etc.) at 13.5% of the assessment base — comprehensive commercial cover is mainly for those not yet in the public system (long-stay visa holders must carry it). This figure is the comprehensive with-inpatient tier, chosen to be comparable with other countries' comprehensive plans; a cheaper 'basic' (urgent-care-only) foreigner plan starts around 900 CZK/mo.

- EEA city viewer value for Brno = 13.3 µg/m³ (2024 annual mean, aggregated from Brno's monitoring stations). Read via the EEA-verified-data tracker eu-airquality.com/czechia/brno (which republishes the EEA city viewer figures) because the EEA viewer itself renders inside a Tableau canvas not machine-readable to automated fetches; the value is EEA's own.
- Notas
- About 2.7× the WHO 2021 guideline (5 µg/m³), within the current EU limit (25) but above the 2030 EU limit (10), so Brno is 'not on track' for 2030 compliance per EEA. Corroborated by the aqicn/ČHMÚ Brno historical annual series (18.8 in 2017 → 15.7 in 2019 → 13.5 in 2020), a clear downward trend consistent with 13.3 in 2024. Lower than Kraków (19.5) and close to Prague (~12); the ČHMÚ tabular yearbook HTML pages (per-station Brno-Tuřany/Brno-Výstaviště) were not machine-readable this cycle, so the EEA city aggregate is used as the primary figure.

- SZÚ/ČHMÚ report: 2023 annual PM2.5 means at Prague's seven monitoring stations ranged 9.5–14.5 µg/m³ (urban-background midpoint ≈ 12 µg/m³). 2023 was an unusually clean year; the limit (20 µg/m³) was not exceeded.

- IB 'Find an IB World School' returned exactly one match for keyword 'Brno': International School of Brno / 'Brno International School s.r.o.' (IB code 004892, Čejkovická 10, Brno-Vinohrady) — IB PYP authorized 2017, IB DP 2020. The same institution is a CIS member (re-accredited by the Council of International Schools on 24 June 2024) and a Cambridge International centre (IGCSE/A Level). IB, CIS and Cambridge here all refer to one school, so it is counted once.
- Notas
- Count = 1. International School of Brno is described by its own and third-party sources as the only internationally accredited school in Brno and the only IB World School in South Moravia; no separate AEFE (French), German Auslandsschulwesen, or additional CIS/COBIS-accredited school was found in the Brno metro. The French Lycée and German school with those accreditations are in Prague, not Brno.

Aggregator sites were used only to find candidates, not as the recorded source.
- Notas
- Verified FLOOR of 9 (±2). The IB find-an-ib-school finder and some accreditor registries returned 403 to automated fetches, so each school was confirmed via its own IB school-detail page, accreditor report, or accreditor's official listing rather than a single directory pull. Additional Prague schools may hold qualifying accreditation but were not each individually verified this cycle (e.g. Christian International School of Prague is ACSI/MSA-accredited — a US regional/faith accreditor, not on the IB/Cambridge/AEFE/German/CIS/COBIS list — so it is excluded from this strict count).

- City-wide asking rent per m² from Deloitte Brno (399 CZK/m²/mo, Q3 2025) applied to typical unit sizes (studio 30 m², 1BR 47 m², 2BR 65 m², 3BR 85 m²), then split into central vs outside using a district multiplier (central Brno-střed ×1.15, outer panel districts ×0.90) reflecting the ~350 CZK/m² near-centre vs ~240–260 CZK/m² outer-panel spread reported by garantovanynajem.cz. Converted at 21.244 CZK/USD. Cross-checked against garantovanynajem.cz market asking figures by disposition (1+kk ≈17,000 → $800; 2+kk ≈24,000 → $1,130; 3+kk ≈32,000 → $1,506 CZK/mo), which the central/outside brackets straddle.

Only the city-wide per-m² asking rent (Deloitte) and the central/outer per-m² spread are directly observed; the type×location matrix is computed transparently. Central = Brno-střed and adjacent; outside = Bohunice, Líšeň, Starý Lískovec and similar outer districts.

The 1BR city-wide figure (466×47 ≈ $1,031) matches the scored rent-1br-center value.
- Notas
- DERIVED matrix: Deloitte publishes offered rent per m² by district, not a room-count × center/outside table. Cells = district per-m² rate × typical unit size for each room class. Center = Prague 1 (top published district); outside = outer residential districts (≈0.92 of city mean). Prague's district rent spread is narrower than in some capitals, so the center/outside gap here is modest. Room sizes are conventional Czech class midpoints.

- About 2.7× the WHO 2021 guideline (5 µg/m³), within the current EU limit (25) but above the 2030 EU limit (10), so Brno is 'not on track' for 2030 compliance per EEA. Corroborated by the aqicn/ČHMÚ Brno historical annual series (18.8 in 2017 → 15.7 in 2019 → 13.5 in 2020), a clear downward trend consistent with 13.3 in 2024. Lower than Kraków (19.5) and close to Prague (~12); the ČHMÚ tabular yearbook HTML pages (per-station Brno-Tuřany/Brno-Výstaviště) were not machine-readable this cycle, so the EEA city aggregate is used as the primary figure.

- SZÚ/ČHMÚ report: 2023 annual PM2.5 means at Prague's seven monitoring stations ranged 9.5–14.5 µg/m³ (urban-background midpoint ≈ 12 µg/m³). 2023 was an unusually clean year; the limit (20 µg/m³) was not exceeded.

- About 2.4× the WHO 2021 guideline (5 µg/m³) but well under the EU limit (20–25). A 2024 traffic station (Praha 2-Legerova) reached 15.5 µg/m³; winter heating and traffic are the main sources.

- Comprehensive (outpatient + inpatient/hospital, benefit limit 1.8–10 million CZK/event, ~EUR 400,000) commercial medical insurance for foreigners — PVZP Comprehensive EXCLUSIVE and comparable UNIQA/Slavia/Maxima/Ergo products — runs ≈1,700–2,500 CZK/month for a healthy 35-year-old. Midpoint ≈2,100 CZK/mo ≈ 25,200 CZK/yr ≈ $1,186 at 21.244 CZK/USD (range ≈ $960–$1,412). Premiums are quoted on request, so this is a curated market midpoint.
- Notas
- Residents with a residence permit and local work/business are covered by mandatory public health insurance (VZP etc.) at 13.5% of the assessment base — comprehensive commercial cover is mainly for those not yet in the public system (long-stay visa holders must carry it). This figure is the comprehensive with-inpatient tier, chosen to be comparable with other countries' comprehensive plans; a cheaper 'basic' (urgent-care-only) foreigner plan starts around 900 CZK/mo.

Otherwise gains are taxed as other income (§10) at 15%/23%. EU MiCA applies. The explicit exemptions and the 3-year 0% rule make this 'legal-friendly' (clear favourable rules), a notch above standard 'legal-regulated'.

- Verified FLOOR of 9 (±2). The IB find-an-ib-school finder and some accreditor registries returned 403 to automated fetches, so each school was confirmed via its own IB school-detail page, accreditor report, or accreditor's official listing rather than a single directory pull. Additional Prague schools may hold qualifying accreditation but were not each individually verified this cycle (e.g. Christian International School of Prague is ACSI/MSA-accredited — a US regional/faith accreditor, not on the IB/Cambridge/AEFE/German/CIS/COBIS list — so it is excluded from this strict count).
