This has got to be one of the worst designed charts I’ve seen
Why make it circular? Are normal bar charts not good enough?
I do not trust any “livability” statistic that lists Frankfurt as the most livable city in Germany.
Also, the chart does not give its selection criteria. Medium sized cities to cities on the smaller side are completely missing. I get not including towns, that would overwhelm the graph.
Then again, what even is a city, what sets it apart from a town? Different regions in Europe have vastly different definitions of that, with the UK’s definition being particularly notable for how useless it is.
Perhaps the liveability index gives extra points for:
- An open drug scene full of crackheads at the main rail station
- A lot of Gangsta rappers from the city
- Being a hub of financial crime
So Frankfurt scored well on those
Don’t forget about all the Nazis with their robot dogs that make up the police force over there.
There just isn’t another way to keep the place nice and safe without them.
Some of the others high up on that list are equally absurd. OK, Zürich and Geneva are maybe nice if you are a millionaire, but for everyone else they are absolutely unaffordable.
At least they have somewhat proportional wages, compared to, for example, Dublin or München.
It has Paris in there, lmao.
If someone forced me at gunpoint to live in Paris, I’d wrestle the gun off of them and then shoot myself.
I feel exactly the same about Paris.
Pretty insane that Moscow and St. Petersburg only rank a little higher than a the Ukrainian capital that is suffering from drone attacks and power outages on the regular.
How is Frankfurt ending up so high on that list?!
How is Berlin (see ach_berlin.txt) higher than Munich?
Which Frankfurt?
- Frankfurt am Main
- Frankfurt (Oder)
- Stadt Frankfurt (Sachsen Anhalt)
- Ježkov (german name Frankfurt)
- Kap Frankfurt (Russia)
Why would they include Frankfurt an der Oder but not Frankfurt am Main? I’m pretty sure they mean the latter and this graph is nonsense…
You‘re right, I thought of Frankfurt am Main, but if it’s one of the others they could be livable. I only have been to Frankfurt am Main, and thats about the last place I would like to end up…
It has a reason why Germans constantly joke about it.
“Drugs” is the only thing I can think of.
And all other European cities are less liveable than Kyiv? I find that hard to believe
Some would make the bold claim that a hot war doesn’t make for a very good local vibe…
They do not monitor all cities in Europe, the listed ones are the 41 cities analysed by the EIU.
Dresden, for example, isn’t listed. I’m pretty sure it has fewer problems with missile and suicide drone attacks than Kyiv does.
