“Monocle”‘s top ten cities to live in

The magazine presented its list this year

Newsroom June 18 05:25

If you love travelling and are constantly on the move, even for just a few days, then the following list might tempt you to settle elsewhere.

 

 

Monocle magazine ran its annual “Quality of Life” survey, judging cities based on four basic principles: International Flights, Ability to go around by bicycle, good places to eat, and public libraries.

 

However, the magazine decided to add 22 more factors into the judgment, including cost of living and getting coffee. This caused a change in the trend of cities, and as Monocle put it, London and New York should learn from it.

 

 

This is the list with the top 10 cities in the world.
