Canada and Australia again do well in the Economist Intelligence Unit‘s liveability rankings for 2009. Interesting that Helsinki is the only appearance from the Nordic region in the top 10. Why not Stockholm or Copenhagen?
Top 10 cities (well, seven ranks if you take into account ties)
1. Vancouver
2. Vienna
3. Melbourne
4. Toronto
5. Perth
5. Calgary (tie)
6. Helsinki
7. Geneva
7. Sydney (tie)
7. Zurich (tie)
