最适合人类居住城市-09年版

FCH

以前移民公司整天宣传：温哥华是人类最适合居住的地方，最近这两年不怎么听到了。原来如此，呵呵：
其实哪个说法都是这个叫mercer的机构评选出来的，主要是给政府和公司外派行政人员做参考的。不过呢，拿它来比较一下城市的居住，也是有一定道理的，请看09年的排名吧：温哥华以及加拿大城市还是不错的。

没去过温哥华，从老大的论坛的照片上和大家的文章描述中，能感受到温哥华的宁静和美丽。没想到温哥华能排在适合人类居住城市的第四位。首选温哥华，不过在温的朋友们一定努力要保护好排名啊！

适合所有人的,并不一定适合自己.
故适合自己的,才是最好的.

祝大家都可以找到适合自己的居住地,祝福!

中国没有一个城市上榜，也有那么多回流的

一杯清茶

孟买够差的了吧?倒数前十应该有份，ESL班上的印度同学还不是思念的不得了，也想回流。

随梦

所以是不是宜居，还是要看自己的实际情况

简单人生

喜欢这里的气候。

未飘落的雪

温哥华还是好城市

小飞猪

月是故乡明,水是故乡甜,不可能连根拔起的,毕竟在中国生活了半辈子了

月明

适合自己的就好。

之前几年一直都是排第一，或并列第一的。

他们的评比，也是做个参考而已，对他们服务的对象的整体来说，应该有一定实际意义的。
