Here’s a look at the best and the worst foreign cities for expatriates to live and work in. The Mercer Quality of Living data assesses the practicalities of daily life for expatriate employees and their families in locations worldwide. The survey studies the factors that influence the world’s economy which have a direct impact on quality of living, particularly in times of unpredictability and volatility. With many employees reconsidering their priorities and assessing their work-life balances, the findings of the survey provide a clearer picture for expats at places where they can live and work and the quality of life they can have there with their families. This year the top 10 cities providing a high quality of living include 7 locations in Western Europe, 2 in the Pacific and 1 in North America.
