If you want to travel a lot and to move, here are some of the world’s most livable cities that will help you decide which city is the right choice for you.
Stockholm in Sweden – top-notch education and welfare, but needs more integration for immigrants to increase its diversity.
Auckland in New Zealand – hosting the rugby world cup did wonders, motivating it to create two new entertainment precincts, and its public transportation was greatly improved as well.
Sydney in Australia – innovative mixed-use districts incorporating cycle paths and vertical gardens are one way the Australian waterside giant is becoming more sophisticated. The central park complex is a triumph in green architecture that can serve as an example for the rest of the world.
Tokyo in Japan – hidden under the façade of a neon-lit megacity is a small town spirit featuring world-class shopping and business opportunities.
Melbourne in Australia – Australia’s cultural hub is getting even better with a big push to ease traffic congestion.
Munich in Germany – unemployment is low, but failure to act on a few key projects has hurt Munich’s standing. Its airport needs a third runway to compete with the other global cities on this list.
Vienna in Austria – continues to evolve from a beautiful relic to a modernized classic. Affordable housing and an imminent brand new campus for the Vienna University’s school for economics and business will inject youth into the city.
Copenhagen in Denmark – the Danes are the happiest people on earth because of places like this with near perfect integration between city life and the outdoors. The city aims to be carbon neutral by 2025.
Helsinki in Finland – crowned world design capital, it is unveiling a new metro line and converting its harbors into attractive residential areas. Helsinki is a city where good ideas can quickly come to life.
Number one is Zurich in Switzerland – with fifty impressive museums, concert halls and theatres. It is a clean, beautiful city and all cities should learn from it.
