OT: Best Cities To Live In

Top 10 list - Vancouver is #1. Switzerland always seem to crack this list.

Anyone live in these:

Vancouver
Melbourne
Vienna
Geneva
Perth
Adelaide
Sydney
Zurich
Toronto
Calgary

(List generated by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU)). All the cities that fell into the top “liveability” bracket were based in Canada, Australia and Western Europe.

What is the criteria? Crime rate, weather climate, economy, housing? The smoked meat sandwich? :wink:

1002

Socialized medicine?

If we are talking Vancouver BC, perhaps it’s the availability of weed.

I live in Melbourne.

It’s ok I suppose.

Dublin is down at fucking 51…beh

wow. vancouver sucks. its expensive, its home to the worst neighborhood in canada(and the cops idea of cleaning it up is swarming the area and arresting everyone in sight), traffic is ridiculous, they are ripping up every bit of green space and replacing it with shopping malls and cookie cutter suburbs, they keep increasing the cost of public transit etc etc etc.
don’t even get me started on the music. if your band isn’t bland indie rock or post-punk, you might as well just move to toronto or montreal.
ugh.
