Vienna also held the number one spot in 20. “Stability and good infrastructure are the city’s main charms for its inhabitants, supported by good healthcare and plenty of opportunities for culture and entertainment,” wrote the EIU in its report.
ViennaĪustria’s capital and most populous city topped this year’s list after slipping to number 12 in 2021, as COVID restrictions shuttered its cultural attractions. Here are the cities that made the top 10. Ukraine’s capital and most populous city, Kyiv, was removed from the list altogether. Geopolitical unrest also impacted this year’s list, causing Russian and Eastern European cities to fall. A score of 1 is “intolerable,” according to the EIU, while 100 is “ideal.” Scores in general improved on this year’s ranking, though the overall index score is still below what it was pre-pandemic. The EIU measures liveability using several factors like political stability, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure, which allow it to asscopign a score between 1 and 100 to every city. This year, Vienna returned to number one, a spot it also held in 20, after its cultural and entertainment attractions reopened. While New Zealand topped the list last year as its closed borders let residents have relatively normal lives, it has since lost its edge as most pandemic-era restrictions have been lifted across the globe. The same is the case this year, although there have been several key shifts. The top of the list is typically dominated by cities in North America and western Europe, along with Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. “It assesses which locations around the world provide the best or the worst living conditions.” “The concept of liveability is simple,” the organization wrote in its 2022 report, which ranks 172 cities. The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), a research organization owned by the Economist media outlet, releases an annual Global Liveability Index, a ranking of the best cities to live in.
