Most livable cities in my opinion are: 1) Vienna 2) Zurich 3) Berlin 4) Malmö 5) Copenhagen Important livability characteristics for me are: 1) Environment: Quality of air, water & food 2) Culture: Arts & architecture; social cohesion 3) Access to nature & world 4) Economy: options for constructive employment 5) Safety Livability of Rohtak: 1) Environment of Rohtak is becoming poor because of increasing pollution. This can be solved by switching to emission-free mobility by increasing walkability of city and putting EV-based public transport in place. 2) Culture of Rohtak is alright but can certainly improve by greater sensitization of children on social issues through education. Architecture of city can be made sustainable by borrowing from traditional design of buildings in the region and innovations being carried out in cities with similar climate. 3) On access front, city is quite well connected. 4) Economy of Rohtak is pretty good for now but green jobs needs to be created to not only deal with environmental challenges but also to give employment to ever-increasing workforce. 5) Even though there has been an increase in violent crimes in the city, situation is reasonably well for now. Involving citizens in urban design can deepen democratic ethos to ensure long-term stability.
