Bogota is the closest match, 15.6 percentile points from Metro Manila across 10 shared metrics. The two sit within eight percentile points of each other on places to eat, universities and clean air. The band widens slowly from there: the last city listed sits 18.4 away, so these 10 are a cluster rather than a ranking with a clear winner. None of the 10 are in Philippines. Distance says how alike two cities measure, never which one is better to live in: a city can be close to Metro Manila because both score badly on the same things.
921 cities ranked by male-to-female ratio, 848 of them measured below national level, 104 country deep-dives.

Distance is the root-mean-square gap in percentile points across the metrics both cities carry, so 0 would be an exact match and 100 the opposite end of every scale. A pair scored on fewer than 8 shared metrics is not listed.
