http://www.economist.com/blogs/gulliver/2009/06/liveable_vancouver.cfm VANCOUVER is still the most liveable city in the world, according to a new ranking from the Economist Intelligence Unit. The Canadian city topped a "liveability survey" of 140 cities, as it did in 2008. The ranking scores each city from 0-100 on 30 factors spread across five areas: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure. Vancouver's average score was 98—0.8 less than last year— but the margins at the top are all tight, with the best ten cities scoring over 96. Vienna came second (it was top in Mercer's similar recent study) and Melbourne third. The top ten included three Canadian cities, three Australian ones and four from Europe. High-scoring cities tend to be mid-sized and located in developed countries with a low population density. This means they can benefit from the availability of both cultural and recreational attractions, but with lower crime levels and fewer infrastructure problemsthan are often found among large populations. Pittsburgh, in 29th place, was judged the most liveable American city. London and New York were 51st and 56th respectively. Harare brings up the rear, scoring 37.5 points. 前十名有三个澳洲城市, 三个加拿大 四个欧洲的 美国最前的面的是匹兹堡 (29) 亚洲第一是 Osaka (13),HK (39), Singapore (54), Seoul (58) 这个排名每年好像都是纽澳加的城市排在前面 --
