Melbourne, Australia
Australian cities are considered the most liveable in the world, according to a new report.
Melbourne topped the list of 140 cities included the 2011 Global Livability Survey, produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit. This is the first time in almost a decade that Vancouver has not come in on top, slipping slightly to third place in the survey. Cites were rated on 30 factors spread across five areas: stability, health care, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure, according to The Economist.
Vancouver is not at the top of our ranking of 140 cities (Vancouver was in joint first position with Melbourne in the 2002 survey). Melbourne now replaces Vancouver as the most liveable city in the survey. The general conditions required for a location to be awarded a high liveability ranking continue to be well reflected in Australian and Canadian cities.
