Nice is a great location for digital nomads or remote workers who prefer a relaxed coastal city with solid infrastructure. The beach is a main highlight and grocery stores are conveniently located throughout the city. Wifi is reliable, making remote work feasible. It’s also a great base for exploring the surrounding areas with easy train and road access to places like Menton, Eze, and Provence. Visitors should be aware that May can get quite hot, and many apartments may not have air conditioning. Opening windows for airflow is common, but this can lead to mosquito bites and noise from the busy streets. Another point of caution is the presence of bed bugs reported in various short-term rentals, so accommodation should be chosen carefully. Overall, Nice is a practical and enjoyable place to stay, especially if you have some French language skills and take a few precautions.

I spent a month working remotely from Nice and really loved it. The beach is fantastic, grocery stores are a couple mins walk from nearly everywhere you could be in the city, wifi is good and the train access to Menton, Eze, etc. or quick drive to provence makes getting around to explore the region super easy.
The only things I learned from my time and would think about next time:
- if you go in May, you will wish you had air conditioning because it gets pretty hot in the evenings and the city is lively, so you'll hear all of the happenings if you're relying on open windows, and you'll wake up with lots of mosquito bites
- Bed bugs were a thing more than I would have expected - I had a friend visit and get them from their airbnb, and two other friends who also got bed bugs from their spot, so keep an eye out.

Paris had originally disappointed me as a traveler, but if you have some proficiency with French, you should definitely come and visit Nice or any other place outside of the big cities in France as there will be more genuine people along with some history and cultural foods you can try.

Green is good. Red is bad. Values shown are the medians of all daily highs in a month based on past few years, not necessarily current numbers. Remote worker count is estimated based on the total amount of trips logged by Nomads.com members.

200 remote workers in Nice now, of which 1+ members checked in (some members are set to private)
Members who have been here
Values shown are estimated visits by traveling remote workers based on the total amount of trips logged by Nomads.com members. Visits to a place are only counted once per year per user, even if they visit more in that year. Visits are also normalized by overall trips added per month on the site, so if site usage goes up or down it does not affect trends. Not all digital nomads are on Nomads.com, and not all Nomads.com members log their trips. So the data is only indicative.
The chart below shows visitors by nationality normalized for population size. This means we take all trips logged on Nomads.com, check which country of origin the user is from, then divide that total visit count by the country of origin's population. If we didn't, it'd just show the big countries like US, Brazil and India always on top. Instead, this shows which nationalities worldwide proportionally visit more or less, which is more useful.

@josh_works: "My wife and I are in Buenos Aires right now. Starting this whole nomad thing felt 100x easier once I joined Nomads.com and saw other people just... doing it."
@melissawashin: "I gave my two weeks notice last week, and I'm flying to Portugal in two weeks. It's important to say (for the ninth time) that joining Nomads.com was the best decision I made to best inform and prepare myself for this decision. So thank you a million times over!"
@zackyoung: "You're going to be lonely sometimes and that's okay. One way I combat this is by being a part of Nomads.com and meet up with other remote workers."
