WHAT ARE THE WORLD RANKINGS FOR "LIVABILITY"
Melbourne ranked number 1, Vancouver a not
surprising number 3...clean air, safe streets, natural beauty etc. but actually, rankings were done by The
Economist, and the editors were looking for other factors, such as worker
safety, economic sustainability; in other words, the way a multinational
corporation might look at a region.
The U.S. doesn't pop up until # 26 - Honolulu. Pittsburgh was #30, Miami #36. There are other cities such as Boston and Seattle also
ranked, and Los Angeles (one might stretch this to thinking So Cal, as this is
a macro approach) # 42, incredibly ahead of San Francisco at # 52, undoubtedly
because of housing affordability.
