The 2024 World's Best Cities list has been released. After a comprehensive comparison of multiple indicators, five Canadian cities ranked in the top 100 globally: Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa, and Calgary.
The World's Best Cities list evaluates over 270 major metropolitan areas with populations exceeding one million, benchmarking them against various criteria to identify the top 100 cities globally for living, visiting, and investing. The overall ranking is determined by analyzing each city's performance across various factors historically correlated with a city's ability to attract employment, investment, or visitors. This year's ranking adopted a slightly different approach, regrouping these 24 factors into three key pillars: Livability, Lovability, and Prosperity. Reference factors include life, culture, nightlife, restaurants, shopping, attractions and landmarks, parks and recreation, airport connectivity, safety, higher education, GDP per capita, university rankings, educational attainment, employment rates, and economic prosperity, among others.
Toronto ranks highest among Canadian cities due to its diversity, education, and status as the headquarters for many large corporations. Vancouver has become a magnet for visitors due to its stunning natural scenery and rich multiculturalism; furthermore, it boasts the largest pan-Asian population outside of Asia.
Following closely is Montreal, which performs well in cultural development and university rankings. As Canada's fourth-largest city, Ottawa has a population where one in four are immigrants, features beautiful natural scenery, and is home to nearly 2,000 thriving knowledge-based enterprises. Calgary shows impressive performance in terms of overall educational attainment and GDP per capita, making it a promising "young" city.
Statistics Canada reports that a surge in international migration is pushing Canada's population growth rate to its highest level in nearly 70 years, with Alberta currently experiencing the fastest population growth of any province on record.
Alberta, Canada, is one of the three Prairie Provinces, bordering British Columbia and Saskatchewan, with a total population of approximately 4.6 million. Alberta enjoys abundant sunshine year-round, with over 300 days of sunshine annually, beautiful surroundings, and a pleasant climate. According to relevant Canadian census data, 200,000 Chinese residents have settled in Alberta to date. Alberta has a mature Chinese community, affordable housing prices, and is a shopping paradise in Canada, benefiting from the lowest 5% sales tax rate in the country. Its low cost of living makes it very friendly for new immigrants to settle and purchase homes.
