Resonance Consultancy has released its annual list of the world's best cities and Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»­came in 41st. 

The Resonance Best Cities rankings quantify and benchmark the relative quality of place, reputation and competitive identity for the world’s principal cities with metropolitan populations of one million or more. The company then analyzes key statistics as well as user-generated reviews and online activity in channels such as Google, Facebook and Instagram in order to rank 100 across the globe. 

“The World’s Best Cities rankings are composed of experiential factors that people consider most important in choosing a city to live and visit, as well as empirical factors that business decision-makers consider important for business or investment,” says Resonance Consultancy President & CEO Chris Fair. 

 

Resonance notes that it took a more holistic approach by using a wide range of factors that show positive correlations with attracting employment, investment and/or visitors. These factors ranged from the number of culinary experiences, museums, and sights and landmarks each city offers, to the number of Global 500 corporations, direct flight connections and mentions each city has on Instagram. 

 

Overall, 22 factors were analyzed to determine the ranking. 

 

Here are the top 10 World’s Best Cities for 2020:

1) London, England
2) New York City, USA
3) Paris, France
4) Tokyo, Japan
5) Moscow, Russia
6) Dubai, United Arab Emirates
7) Singapore, Republic of Singapore
8) Barcelona, Spain
