Singapore is the most expensive city on the dataset and there's no nomad route — the long-stay paths are aimed at corporate hires (Employment Pass), founders (EntrePass), or the global elite (ONE Pass, $30k/mo income). Most nomads use it as a 1–2 week transit stop with great food and infrastructure. As a base, only the income-test paths make sense.
