Melbourne has been crowned the globe’s most liveable city for the third time in a row, nudging out Austrian capital Vienna in The Economist Intelligence Unit Survey.
In the review of 140 cities, Victoria’s capital was given perfect scores for health care, education and infrastructure.
Meanwhile four other Australian cities made this year’s top 10, including Adelaide (number 5), Sydney (number 7) and Perth (number 9).
Conflict was responsible for many of the lowest scores. Damascus in war-torn Syria was ranked the lowest, scoring just 20 per cent for stability.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Cool. I've spent time in three of those cities in the past two months (Vienna, Helsinki, and Toronto).
I didn't check, but it doesn't appear that cost of living was considered. Certainly, these would all be great cities to visit while on an expense account!
