Europe’s cities once more dominate the world’s top 10 for quality of living. Vienna is the city rated to have the best quality of life worldwide, having moved up one place in the rankings following recent improvements in Austria’s political and social environment.

Dublin ranks 25th of 215 (in the top 12%) in the Mercer 2009 Quality of Living Global City rankings, ahead of numerous major cities such as Paris (33rd), London (38th), and Barcelona (42nd).

This year’s ranking also identifies the cities with the best infrastructure based on   electricity supply, water availability, telephone and mail services, public transport provision, traffic congestion and the range of international flights from local airports.

The complete ranking is available from the Mercer website.
