Why you might not pick Agglomeratie ’s-Gravenhage
Freight intensity (EU bottom 15%); Industrial base (EU bottom 15%). Its weakest dimension is Industrial base (EU pctl 1) — Vilniaus apskritis may suit a mandate that weights that higher.
How robust is this recommendation?
The leader depends on the mandate: Logistics → Vilniaus apskritis · Manufacturing → Vilniaus apskritis · Office → Agglomeratie ’s-Gravenhage · Residential → Agglomeratie ’s-Gravenhage.
Phase-2 diligence checklist
- Site-level grid connection capacity and power pricing (beyond country-grain energy data)
- Local incentives, tax regimes and permitting timelines
- Workforce depth for your specific roles (the talent pillar is a proxy)
- Real-estate availability, rents and land — public pan-EU data stops at the Nordics
This is a mandate-neutral read. To weight the pillars to your thesis, run these regions through the Site Screener — it ranks all 1,211 regions under your weights and exports the full PDF. First-pass macro screening, not investment advice.
