1. Which are your top livability criteria? 1)Education 2)Job Opportunities 3)Climate 4)Environment 5)Culture 2. Why do we live where we live? I live in Los Angeles and the reason is rather related to the top livability criteria. The climate is very nice, education is very important and there are also many job opportunities. There is a very diverse culture and the environment is always in consideration. 3. To what extend does your own place of residence fulfill your ideal livability criteria? 1)Education (100%) 2)Job Opportunities (90%) 3)Climate (100%) 4)Environment (65%) 5)Culture (90%) General Livability score: 88% 4. What would you change? It is probably no secret that the USA has many political and environmental issues. Often times, the people are divided which majorly stunts factors for environment, culture and education. The climate here is one of the best in the world (in my opinion). What I would change would have a greater focus on companies and policy to actually promote environmental improvements (not just talk about how bad the water situation is, and then do nothing). If I was mayor, the first thing I would do would be to improve the environment. Then I would attempt to make education more inclusive and affordable. 5. Why do we move? If I were to move, there are few cities that I feel compatible with. My top three choices would be Tokyo, Singapore and Sydney. These cities are very livable and in some aspects, similar to Los Angeles. They each have their own issues with politics, environment and so on. However, no city is perfect, but these cities are pretty close. My top 5 standards are still as follows: 1)Education 2)Job Opportunities 3)Climate 4)Environment 5)Culture
