The BAANLYY Area Score rates all 6 Samut Prakan areas on a transparent 100-point scale, built from seven relocation-relevant lived-experience factors. One number to compare at a glance — then dig into the detail that matters for a commuter move or a family relocation.
How it's scored: each area is rated 1–10 on seven relocation-relevant factors — BTS/MRT access, schools, healthcare, safety, value, airport access and quiet — and the BAANLYY Area Score is their average on a 0–100 scale. BTS/MRT access stands in for the beach/nightlife factor used on coastal guides, since rail access is the defining driver of commute time and rental demand in this Bangkok Metro province (see the getting around guide). It's a transparent comparison starting point, not investment advice — weight the factors that matter to you.
