For the second consecutive year, the metropolis maintains its 134th rank in the listing of 140 worldwide cities.
The rankings were assigned on basis of qualitative and quantitative factors falling broadly in the categories of infrastructure, healthcare, stability, culture, environment, and education.
The survey excludes cities like Kabul or Baghdad for the conflict is ongoing while only including cities or business centres that people might want to live in or visit. However, cities like Damascus, which were in the near past relatively unstable, have been included.
