Melbourne and Sydney remain in this year's list of the top ten most liveable cities in the world but have fallen in the rankings due to the housing crisis.

Melbourne outranks Sydney as Australia's most liveable city, coming in at fourth in the world in this year’s Economist Intelligence Unit's Global Liveability Index.  The survey looked at 173 cities and assessed factors like stability, healthcare, culture, environment, education and infrastructure. Affordability was not assessed. Each city was given an index score aggregate out of 100.

Damascus in Syria remained the world's least liveable city among those surveyed, with particularly low scores for stability and healthcare. Tel Aviv fell in the rankings most dramatically, from 92nd to 112th, following the start of the Hamas-Israel war. But Western European cities featured most prominently among the cities with declining rankings.
