2. Housing - 2 ; Neighbourhood - 2 ; Transport - 2 ; Environment - 4 ; Health - 3 ; Engagement - 3 : Opportunity - 1 3. Boston, Seattle, Chicago 5. ![enter image description here][1] 6. For me, the factor with the highest importance is the "Opportunity" factor, as I am a job and activity oriented person, which seeks dynamic and vivid places, where one could find a balance between profession and social / urban life (as we know that today there are no perfect job conditions, therefore one has to find substitutes). When I moved the bar of Opportunity to a higher importance, the scores modified quite visible, if not drastically in the case on Boston. Thus, this shows a lack of opportunities in all of the three cities. One of them, Boston, went unexpectedly way down; as far as I know, Boston is a student town. This tells me that basically the city relies on its student population, consumption, finances etc. and does not offer too many other opportunities which could provide for the city. For Seattle and Chicago the score did not modify too much, which tells me that in these cities there may be a certain equilibrium and balance between all the factors.
