Think Tank, an economist, has just released the 2019 "World`s Most Liveable City," and Melbourne have lost its crown after 2018.
Economic Man Think Tank`s annual "the world`s most livable city" selection, the assessment criteria mainly include:
Stabilities (Social Stability), Healthcare (Health), Culture & Environment (Culture and Environment), Education (Education) and Infrastructure (Infrastructure).
Melbourne won the championship for seven years before 2018.
Last year, however, Vienna, the Austrian capital, stood out from more than 140 cities, beating Melbourne and winning the title.
This year, congratulations to Vienna on winning the title of "the most livable city in the world" again!
Melbourne ranked # 2, Sydney 3rd, Adelaide 10th.
Despite losing the title, Australia has three seats in the top 10 most livable cities.
Sydney`s ranking rose from the fifth in last year to third, and the score gap with Melbourne narrowed to 0.3, and the gap with the champion Vienna narrowed to 1 point.
Keeping the pace of progress is not far from the championship.
Melbourne missed the championship
Previously, Melbourne`s small partners were always proud to say to others that we are the most livable city in the world.
But why did you miss the championship in the last two years?
Let`s look at this year`s assessment of Melbourne _
This year`s Melbourne, with a full score of 100 in Healthcare, Education, and Infrastructure (Infrastructure), is also an eye-to-eye, with "the art of literature and art".
The question is on: stability.
Melbourne plummeted five places to 10th in the latest safe cities ranking just released by the economics a few days ago. Sydney ranks fifth.
On a case-by-case basis, according to the latest statistics released by the Crime Bureau of Statistics, the number of criminal cases recorded in Melbourne has reached the highest crime rate in the last 15 years.
In June, the crime data Bureau of Statistics reported that, while the reporting rate remained the same, the number of reported cases increased by 0.5 per cent.
In the past 12 months, the police have handled 178731 criminals, the highest number on record, although the total number of victims is the lowest since records began in 2004.
Despite the steady youth crime rate, the number of women accused of crimes below the age of 19 rose by nearly 9%.
Mayor: Too many people
Last year, after a defeat in Vienna in Melbourne, the then-mayor of Melbourne, Sali Capp, said that there were about 1.8 million people in Vienna and that the population in Melbourne had reached 4.6 million.
There are forecasts that Melbourne will have a population of more than 8 million by 2050.
The rapid development of Melbourne and the influx of foreign immigrants have led to a series of problems such as increased population density, traffic congestion and the like, leading to a reduction in the livability of Melbourne.
When it comes to traffic, the Infrastructure Victoria model shows that drivers could spend 20 percent more time on traffic over the next 12 years as congestion worsens.
That is, by 2030, the commute will be extended to five hours.
As people`s daily travel distance will increase by 25 percent, in the suburbs of Melbourne, the evening peak will begin as early as 2:30 and end no later than 8:30 at the latest.
In addition, Melbourne in the security, vagrancy resettlement and other aspects still need to be improved.
Karp also pointed out that although Melbourne lost its championship position, it scored its highest score in eight years.
livable secret
Although the title of the title has been lost, Melbourne will be able to reach for seven years, and it`s been in the first 3 years, and it`s already well.
What makes Melbourne top of the list for years?
A relatively acceptable living cost: in a cosmopolitan city, compared to New York, Sydney, Hong Kong, Melbourne, prices are low.
World-class education: Melbourne has gathered some of the best educational institutions in Australia, covering the complete education phase from the kindergarten to the university.
World-leading health care: Melbourne`s per-capita life is among the highest in the world, thanks to Australia`s world-famous health care system, including high-quality public and private hospitals, as well as community health services, ambulance services, dental services, and more.
The climate is pleasant: the weather in melbourne is variable, but overall climate is unique, and there is always a place for everyone: the autumn is mild, the winter is cool and the spring is sunny.
While enjoying Melbourne`s wonderful outdoor life, the air quality is high.
