For another year The World Best Cities 2021 ranking results were published, listing the cities worth living in or visiting this year.

In the report on the best cities in the world, Resonance Consultancy ranks the best cities with a population of over a million, using a combination of statistical results and quality ratings by locals and visitors in 25 regions grouped into six main categories, including climate, safety level, availability of recreational infrastructure and attractions, availability of educational institutions, airports, restaurants and shops, share of educated residents, income of citizens and popularity on social networks.

Despite Brexit, London is ranked at the top of the best cities on the planet for the fifth year in a row, so it has always topped it since the rankings started. It stands out mainly for its fresh air, open spaces, its landscapes, as well as its strong advertising and programming.

London is followed by New York, Paris, Moscow, Tokyo, Dubai, Singapore, Barcelona, Los Angeles and Madrid.

Rome ranks 11th, St. Petersburg 16th, and after it are Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague. Washington bottoms the list of the top 20.

There is no Bulgarian city in the top 100, but the ranking includes 3 Balkan cities - Istanbul (21th place), Athens (79th) and Bucharest (91st). Last year the Romanian capital was not in the ranking at all.

This year, special circumstances in all areas, including the economic consequences of the pandemic, have also been taken into account before preparing the ranking. The crisis caused by the pandemic has affected tourism, hospitality, trade, leisure, everything. This means that major cities that take advantage of these sectors to make their cities more attractive for residence or travel are significantly reduced. Resonance Consultancy heeded all these factors to base this ranking on accurate and updated statistics, reviews and comments on social networks such as Facebook or Instagram or Google.
