A median is the middle of every test run in the place that quarter: half the lines are faster, half slower. Cities usually beat the national number; islands and hill towns usually do not. "Work from it" is this site's own line — 150 Mbps down, 50 up, under 30 ms — for a household on calls all day; one person needs far less.
The guides in Moldova
ChișinăuMoldovaThe least-visited capital in Europe, a city of parks and Soviet concrete, with the biggest wine cellars in the world under the hills outside it and a country that wants you to come
Orheiul VechiMoldovaA limestone gorge an hour from the capital with a monastery cut into the cliff, a village of whitewashed houses, and two thousand years of layers under the grass
TiraspolMoldovaThe capital of a country that does not exist: Lenin still standing, a currency nobody else takes, a Soviet main street kept as it was, and a day trip from Chișinău that is stranger than anywhere else in Europe
