London named world's second best city, but quality of life poor
London has been ranked the second best city globally for the second year running by Oxford Economics' Global Cities Index. The economic advisory firm praised London's strong economy and its top spot for "human capital" due to its universities and appeal to educated migrants. However, the city scored poorly in quality of life, ranking 147th, mainly because of its housing affordability crisis.
