When it comes to living standards, Bratislava ranks near the top of the list, according to the UK weekly The Economist’s Global Liveability Ranking. “The study analyzed the development of life quality in 140 world capitals in 2009-14, and Bratislava was included in a group of cities with the highest standard of living where people face only small problems,” Lubomír Andrassy, the director of the Bratislava mayor’s office, told the server čas.sk. He pointed to the fact that since 2009, Bratislava has moved up and out of the second category within the ranking thanks to investments into infrastructure, education and social and cultural life. Vancouver, Toronto, Melbourne, Sydney and Vienna are among the 10 best cities to live in the world.
