Best 10 cities to live in 2018!

I'm going to analyze the 10 best cities to live around the world for this 2018... Here goes my list!

10- Düsseldorf, Germany

Düsseldorf, at the center of the industrial Ruhr area, has also become a major hub for services. With excellent infrastructure and international connectivity, it is known for its fashion industry and the strong presence of the advertising and telecommunications industries. Considered the most cosmopolitan of the German cities, and known for its award-winning parks, it combines the charm of the old city with modern architecture and a fairly generous supply of recreational and cultural amenities.

9- Auckland, New Zealand

Auckland, New Zealand’s largest city, has been consistently ranked in the third position in the Mercer Quality of Life Survey for the last five years. Its two large harbors and its beaches are some of its main attractions. As Mercer’s mobility leader Lorraine Jennings says, "New Zealand cities illustrate a stable infrastructure, increased availability of housing on the city fringe and lifestyle choices that are particularly appealing to the younger generation.” Personal safety, an increasing concern worldwide, is also one of Auckland’s strong points.

8- Sydney, Australia

Sydney holds 10th position on the Mercer survey and a more than honorable eighth in the Monocle list. This year, though, it dropped out of the EIU’s top 10 due to safety concerns related to terrorism. Despite this drawback, Sydney continues to attract millions of visitors each year and its inhabitants keep enjoying its mild weather, superb beaches, the amazing and extremely diverse cuisine and its vibrant arts scene.

7- Berlin, Germany

It is no surprise that Berlin takes second position in the Monocle’s Most Livable Cities list. Berlin is well known for its exceptional architecture and museums and fabulous green spaces. But with a relatively low cost of living and its relaxed and tolerant lifestyle, its edgy people, cheap drinks and vibrant nightlife, the city has also become a magnet for creative minds, which means an animated art scene, a growing presence of tech start-ups and a more diverse and independent retail market.

6- Zurich, Switzerland

The city is known as the country's economic and cultural hub. It regularly tops Mercer's survey, this year in second position, and it made 13th in Monocle’s 2017 list. Nature lovers will feel at home, as Zurich sits by the lake of the same name and the surrounding mountains offer great hiking and skiing opportunities. Although the cost of living is high, it is balanced with higher earnings and a favorable taxation system. A good transportation network and very high personal safety scores add to the advantages of living in Switzerland’s main city.

5- Copenhagen, Denmark

Despite being one of the most expensive cities in the world, it also ranks as one of the happiest places to live. Monocle has ranked it the fourth best city to live, thanks to its bicycle-friendly infrastructure, its clean water, the safety of its streets and its vibrant food scene. The new art and creativity hubs in Vesterbro and Christianshavn and the alehouses and gourmet restaurants in Norrebro add to its recreational amenities.

4- Melbourne, Australia

The capital of Victoria is ranked first in the EIU’s Livability Ranking and it has been so for six years in a row. The city attained perfect scores for its education, healthcare and infrastructure and almost perfect scores for its safety and its culture and environment. Melbourne is never too cold or too hot, it’s a prime spot for water sports, it is filled with parks, gardens and innovative architecture and it offers a vibrant music and arts scene. According to the EIU, yes, you really can have it all, if you live in Melbourne.

3- Munich, Germany

Although it didn’t make the top 10 of the EIU ranking, Munich scored fourth and fifth position respectively in the Mercer and Monocle lists. Its people can enjoy the mountains in the winter and cafes, beer gardens, parks and lakes in the summer. With the right combination of greenery, old city charm, modern infrastructure and German civility, Munich, as Monocle puts it, “strikes the right balance between bucolic and urbane.” Although expensive by German standards, its outstanding international connectivity, smart urban planning, first-rate education and healthcare and excellent public transportation and infrastructure have made it the city with the highest rate of foreign employees in Germany.

2- Vancouver, Canada

Vancouver displays exceptional natural advantages: It is blessed with excellent weather—temperatures rarely dip below freezing in the winter—and it is located in an exceptionally beautiful natural setting that the city has managed to protect. Stunning views, easily accessible beaches and densely forested green spaces make for great outdoor attractions. Commuting times are manageable and the city is clean, green, safe and one of the most ethnically diverse. On top of it, Vancouver also offers a thriving culinary scene that will please the most demanding foodies.

1- Vienna, Austria

Vienna tops the Mercer ranking for the eighth year in a row, is second in the EIU list and third in Monocle’s. Vienna is your city if you enjoy chatting over a cup of coffee and a cake, but it also benefits from its great museums, theaters and operas and its elegant historical architectural setting. On top of it, continuous investments in high-quality social housing and its extensive and cheap public transportation system also make it an affordable city to live in.
