Best cities in the world: Why are Zürich, Münich and Sydney so good?
Wednesday, June 11th, 2008The HR consultants in Mercer releases a yearly report on the best and worst cities in the world, according to quality of life. This year the list is topped, as usual, by Germanic and Australian-Pacific cities, all in peaceful and pleasant countries (Zürich on top for the 7th time). And while all the top 10 cities differ in some ways, they have in common one thing: they are thoroughly boring. How come they always come out in top of lists like these? And when Adelaide, Australia comes out above Paris, France, something must be wrong, right?
