Vienna loses title: Now Copenhagen is the most livable city!

Wien, Österreich - Vienna has lost its title as the most livable city in the world. According to the current ranking of the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the Austrian capital has no longer made it under the first places and now ranks behind Copenhagen, which leads the list. Geneva and Zurich follow in second and third place. What went wrong?

In the new ranking, the EIU judges 173 cities worldwide according to 30 indicators in five categories: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education and infrastructure. The Mercer Quality of Living Ranking and the Numbo Quality of Life Index are also flowing into the reviews. This comprehensive analysis shows that Vienna has recently lost points in areas such as public and political stability, as well as quality of life. Copenhagen in turn scores with sustainable urban development and an excellent balance between professional and leisure life, which gives the city a clear advantage.

other cities in ranking

While Vienna falls behind the Danish and Swiss cities, German cities are also affected. Frankfurt am Main took 8th place, followed by Munich (17th), Düsseldorf (19th), Hamburg (20th), Berlin (21st) and Stuttgart (23rd) compared to previous years. These city names are still in the top 25, but they have lost significantly in terms of quality of life.

Another look at the US cities shows that they are not even represented in the top 25. The reasons for this are social inequality, high health costs and criminal activities that cloud the attitude to life.

What does that mean for Vienna?

The decision -makers and city planners of Vienna are faced with the challenge of stopping this decline and bringing the city back to the front places. Political stability, a well -functioning education system and an intact environment must be further strengthened through targeted measures. In addition, real estate development in the city could be designed more sustainably in order to offer both locals and investors new perspectives.

The increasing challenges in the living area and banking policy make it difficult to do good business for new buildings. This could reduce the attractiveness of the city in the long run. The people here want a home that offers everything: security, social cohesion and a high quality of life.

How it goes on remains to be seen. But it is clear that Vienna has to work on its strengths in order to penetrate the top group of the world's most worth living. Details about the criteria and analyzes of these rankings could provide helpful information.

It remains exciting to see how Vienna will react to these challenges in the coming years and whether it can find the way back to the top.
