New Mercer "Quality of Living" Survey

Because I keep my eye on these things :-).

With reference to people I know living in different places, and other points of interest:
Quality Of Living Survey 2007
1 = Zurich
2 = Geneva
3 = Vancouver
5 = Auckland
9 = Sydney
12 = Wellington
27 = Dublin
35 = Tokyo
39 = London
44 = Chicago
48 = New York

Cost Of Living Survey 2006
1 = Moscow
2 = Seoul
3 = Tokyo
4 = Hong Kong
5 = London
10 = New York
18 = Dublin
19 = Sydney
38 = Chicago
(Auckland wasn't in the top 50)

Also in the Worldwide Health and Sanitation Survey 2007, Auckland, Wellington and Dublin are pretty much equal, and well above all other major world cities.

See more details at.

For those who live in cities below the top 50. See the below address for full details:

Well.. What can I say.. Bit disappointed to be in the 75th City..
(Actually.. technically I don't live in Kuala lumpur, I live in Selangor.. but it is basically the same).

Never would have thought Auckland was so far up there.. Must have cheated somehow.
