For the third year in a row, Vienna has been named the most livable city in the world according to the new Global Livability Index by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU).
The annual report considered 173 cities worldwide, assessing them based on 30 indicators organized into five categories: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure.
Vienna has an average score of 98.4 out of 100, with perfect scores for stability, healthcare, education, and infrastructure, and slightly lower scores in the culture and environment categories, “due to a lack of major sporting events,” CNBC reports.
Copenhagen comes in second (98), followed by Zurich (97.1).
