Toronto and Vancouver but not Montréal?

well clearly they didn’t consider housing access and prices as “liveable” criteria..

I'd love to move to Switzerland but it's so expensive!

Whoop whoop

I don’t know about the others, butI have to agree, life in Copenhagen is very liveable 

Been living here for 3 years now and I still love it

I would still rather live in a village on top of the mountains compared to any city.

Why did Australian and NZ cities drop so much? The pandemic and affordability im guessing 

[SimonBaetens 86]

Amsterdam?? The tourist attraction park nightmare? Okay.

Welcome to Toronto, where you are financially crushed if your under 40 years old. 

Seriously, we have houses that are in the millions, tiny condos in the mid 500k, and our salaries do not compete with other large NA cities like Chicago, Dallas, or NYC. 

I do think its a great city in every aspect other than housing and income - which I think is a huge deal, especially on younger people who want to start thier lives and move away from thier parent's home.

I guess "liveable" means no parking, no nature, no affordable housing and no room to breathe

Frankfurt, Germany is an outright lie

Feels like they forget to mention that these are "The most liveable cities when your are wealthy"...

No joke, I can't name one German city where I have ever felt more unsafe than Frankfurt
