The main reasons i live here are the following: 1. I was born and raised here. 2. It is a safe city with good people. 3. It has a great climate all year long. 4. It has a great history and culture. 5. You are able to approach both sea or mountain in a very short period of time. It combines many different landscapes in short distance with easy access. ![The city of Athens.

To what extend does your own place of residence fulfill your ideal livability criteria?** 1. Safety - 80% 2. Job opportunities - 20% 3. Political stability - 40% 4. Health care - 40% 5. Education - 30% General livability score for Athens 60% **4. What would you change?** I would change the way education works here in Greece and by saying education i am referring to a more spherical point of view and not only to the school knowledge. I believe educating the kids is something vital in order to protect but also to take advantage of the opportunities that Athens can offer but also for a person to act and think as a whole in order to create a healthy society and by extension a healthy and livable city. **5.
