Q2. Why do I live where I live? 1 - We moved to Oslo two years ago because my partner had a job opportunity here; 2 - The size of the city - rather small for a capital - and the low population density 3 - Nature is extraordinary beautiful and the city is ideally located between the fjord and the hills providing a rich range of outdoor activities in summer and winter. It has also lots of parks and green spaces; 4 - Public transport is really good, its network is inter-connected very well. The city size makes it possible to cycle everywhere, there is no need for a car; 5 - It's generally safe and very clean. ![Green spaces][1]![enter image description here][2]! Q3. To what extend does your own place of residence fulfill your ideal livability criteria? 1 - Environment 100% 2 - Climate 75% 3 - Job opportunities 65% 4 - Transportation 90% 5 - Health 70% General livability score 80% Q4. 4. What would you change? I think that the cycling paths in the city center could be improved in terms of safety, connection and visibility - at the moment the network is not continuous in some places and not safe. Another issue is the need for housing and the price of accommodation. The population is expected to grow a lot in the coming years and it will be important to meet the demand without incurring in an artificially inflated construction boom. Q5.
