Scores are derived from various considerations, encompassing educational achievements, GDP per capita, poverty rates, and an array of amenities such as quality restaurants, shops, and nightclubs. Other contributing factors include walkability, mapped bike routes, parks, museums, and recommendations on platforms like Tripadvisor, Google, Facebook, and Instagram.

The top ten features a diverse mix of cities, including four in Asia, four in Europe, and two in the United States. Noteworthy mentions include Seoul’s rise as a global pop culture hub, Amsterdam’s improvements in liveability, Barcelona’s unique blend of liveability and lovability, and San Francisco’s status as a premier destination for start-up innovation.

Dubai continues its ascent with opulent offerings, while Singapore stands out for its remarkable dining and shopping experiences.

Despite challenges like COVID-19, economic downturns, and geopolitical events, London remains resilient and at the forefront of global discourse.
