Kiev, the only European city in the bottom ten, performs better for health care and education but has a low stability score due to Ukraine’s ongoing conflict with Russia.
COMING up with a list of the world’s best cities is a
near-impossible task. The bustle and hum of megacities like São Paulo or Tokyo
might be too much for some people; others might struggle with the pace of life
in Cleveland or Frankfurt.
A ranking released on August 18th by our corporate cousin, the
Economist Intelligence Unit, attempts instead to quantify the world’s most
“liveable” cities—that is, which locations around the world provide the best or
the worst living conditions. The index, measured out of 100, considers 30
factors related to safety, health care, educational resources, infrastructure
and the environment to calculate scores for 140 cities.
