Why is Bangalore so high?

Bangalore has an exceptionally active OSM mapping community, so even small coworking venues end up tagged. The same number for Bali or Medellín is probably 3-5× under-counted because the mapping density is lower there.

How wide is the search area?

Bounding box of ±0.1° latitude/longitude around the city center, ~11 km half-side. Big enough to catch neighborhood clusters, small enough to exclude commuter towns.

When was this last refreshed?

Each city page shows the OSM query date in the Coworking card. The pipeline can be re-run any time, Overpass is free, ODbL-licensed.

Cities with the most coworking spaces, by OSM tagging

Most “best for coworking” lists are vendor-curated. We count real OpenStreetMap entries tagged amenity=coworking_space within ~11 km of each city center. Caveat: OSM tagging coverage in Latin America and Africa is uneven, so real density there is likely higher.
