What a joke. Melbourne is probably the least desirable big city to live in Australia. Besides the terrible far-left government, with the worst Covid lock-downs and mandates in the country, and a very corrupt police force, it has awful weather, infrastructure that is questionable, and the CBC has become a place the fewer people want to visit.

I must say that Warsaw is probably the most underrated city on the planet. It’s clean, easy to get around in, parks everywhere, great restaurants. It’s not as touristy as say, Prague, but that’s actually a good thing.

LA has improved? If you are a street crapping bum, maybe

Live where you want. There is more to life than a poll...

I’d put Lisbon in the top group.

This poll, as are most, is a joke.

Los Angeles is a large homeless encampment, not a city.

Baltimore, Camden, and Trenton are missing from the worst cities list.

When you dig into the internals, I bet you will find the ratings are heavily weighted toward socialist governments.

Wait till they’re freezing in the dark in Vienna, Copenhagen, Frankfurt and Amsterdam this winter.

Isn’t Vancouver overrun with the “walking dead”? Spare change? You got some money for my dinner?

Notice the first criteria on the list, healthcare. All of these "polls" written by lefty journalists crap on the U.S. because we don't have socialized healthcare. They invariably list european or canadian cities as having the best quality of life because of that. Canadians, however, routinely come to the U.S. for healthcare because of the deficiencies of their own healthcare, for example the premier of Newfoundland a few years ago who opted to have his heart surgery in the U.S. because he wanted the best care.

Yes, American healthcare is expensive. However, it's also where the best healthcare can be found which is why the world's richest come here instead of Canada or Europe when they have serious health issues. Leftists equate socialist healthcare with "best" when it's anything but.

Agreed, Port au Prince Haiti is so bad nobody wanted to visit to even make an assessment.

Any city should be on the most unlivable list. They’re all shxtholes.

“The Chinese bought up so much property in Vancouver the prices became unaffordable for regular people”

Even the “regular people” that already own homes will be squeezed by the increase in property taxes that’ll be hitting because of the increased property values. I’m not sure how it works in Canada, but I’m expecting a significant bump in tax values and property taxes in the next year or two (here in NC).
