News Flash:
- Fukuoka City ranks #16 in Monocle's 2009 Top 20 Most Livable Cities in the World
The Financial Times and Monocle Magazine recently published a league table of the most livable cities in the world, and Fukuoka was able to land on the #16th spot, the 2nd highest ranking given to a Japanese City, and the 4th highest for an Asian City after Tokyo (#3), Melbourne (#9), and Sydney (#13). This is the 2nd consecutive time that Fukuoka has recognized since Monocle Magazine started with the "best city" listing in 2007. Fukuoka was previously ranked 17th in the 2008 list. A qoute in the Monocle Magazine's article which conducted the research, states that;
“If I wanted the best of Japan but also great connections to the rest of Asia then it would be my first choice.”
"Fukuoka edges ahead because of its great connections and easy living. Fukuoka is so far from Tokyo - nearly 900km - that it has long since learnt to resist the pull towards the Japanese capital."
