How do they compute the favoribility of a city?

Yekaterinburg, Russia:

English Speaking: bad

Free WiFi: bad

Friendly to Foreigners: bad

Racial Tolerance: bad

Gay Friendly: bad

New Orleans, USA:

The only bad thing is the absence of free WiFi in the city. Yet, Ekaterinburg is apparently 12% better than New Orleans. How so?

Must be the low living and coworking costs.

That is an awful link! I might expected to see some bad points for Bucharest because of, I don't know, air maybe!? (...considering it's a capital with traffic and all.) But no - it scores badly for fun! This is the city that has furbished its entire central district for fun only! People from all around the Europe and western part of Asia fly in here to party because the local authorities made it easy to party 24/7 all around the year! No fun? ...really!? Those score points are arbitrary as hell!
