MODERATORS
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.
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.
Perhaps the liveability index gives extra points for:
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.
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.
