2009 International Living Quality of Life Index
International Living magazine just released the 2009 Quality of Life Index, their annual ranking of “the world’s best places to live.” On the 1-100 scale, Argentina received its highest marks in the categories of Risk & Safety (100), Climate (92), Freedom (83) and Health (71).
Of the 194 countries surveyed, Argentina came in a very respectable #21 sandwiched right between the United Kingdom and Finland; however, Argentina’s Cost of Living score (69) was much lower than either the U.K. (29) or Finland (49).
In terms of regional appeal, the 2009 Quality of Life Index ranks neighboring Uruguay and Argentina as the #1 and #2 best places to live in all of Latin America.
