Super ranking for Auckland
Auckland is one of the best cities in the world to live in, according to Mercer's 2009 Worldwide Quality of Living Survey.
In the international consultancy and investment service provider's survey of 215 cities, Auckland was ranked fourth-equal with Vancouver, rising from fifth last year. Tourism Auckland chief executive, Graeme Osborne, says this is an outstanding result. “A ranking of fourth in the world is brilliant and will help to further boost our international reputation as a world-class city and a great place to live, work or visit,” he says. http://www.mercer.com/qualityofliving
