Canberra is the second-best city in the world for quality of life, according to the latest report by the Oxford Economics Global Cities.

The quality of life measure encapsulates the wellbeing and satisfaction of a city’s residents. The indicators used to rank each city include life expectancy, income per person, income equality, housing expenditure, recreation and cultural sites, and internet speed.

Canberra was ranked behind just Grenoble in France and was the only Australian city ranked in the top 10 for quality of life

To be fair, Canberra didn't score that highly on anything else so the overall score was considerably lower.
