#1 Melbourne

Melbourne, has been declared the best city in the world to live for the 4th year running. The Australian culture hub was buoyed by superlative healthcare, infrastructure and education as well as a murder rate of 3.1 per 100,000 people, half the global average of 6.2. 

Melbourne's total score of 97.5, assessed on various factors such as "stability" and "culture and environment," as well as those mentioned above, was just 0.1 points above Vienna, which scored identically across all categories to Melbourne except culture and environment.

Known for its great weather and coffee culture, Melbourne is the most liveable city for the fourth year running. Excellent healthcare, education and infrastructure also helped earn this Australian city top honors.
